What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Virginia
I am trying to evict my tenant who lives in Fairfax, VA. We have done the 5 day pay or quit notice, and that has passed and she did not pay. We have the hearing for the unlawful detainer in a couple of weeks. The detainer only states unpaid rent for July and August, because I forget to note "and future rent". The Sept. rent is due tomorrow. If she does not pay September's rent, should I get the Sheriff to post another 5 day pay or quit notice? I could not tell from the VA statutes whether a new 5 day notice would cancel out the current detainer.
Also, if she does actually pay up on the hearing on the 12th or during the 10 day period after, can we still evict? She would have been late paying rent for 3 straight months.
Finally, what about an unconditional eviction? I have read a little bit about that but cannot find any specifics info on that.
Just so you know, our lease agreement is solid. It is a 12 month lease and clearly states when rent is due and the specifics for late charges and the like.
