Is an unlawful detainer the same as an eviction?

No. Not technically. An unlawful detainer is the name of the pleading filed in order to eventually obtain an eviction, which is where the law comes and puts you out of your landlords property. In law words have very specific, individual meanings. Sometimes lay people use these legal words interchangeably, thereby unwittingly making "unlawful detainer" have the same general meaning as "eviction." In other words unlawful detainer is a piece of paper, and eviction is the physical act of the authorities putting you out and your landlord back in. Thanks.


Can an unlawful detainer be removed with bankrupcy in ca?

In California, filing for bankruptcy can potentially halt an unlawful detainer action due to the automatic stay that goes into effect, which temporarily prevents creditors from pursuing claims against the debtor. However, bankruptcy does not automatically eliminate the eviction; it may only delay the process. If the eviction is based on non-payment of rent, the landlord may seek relief from the stay to proceed with the eviction. Ultimately, the outcome depends on the specifics of the case and the type of bankruptcy filed.

Can a landlord file a Writ of Possession if he never filed for eviction?

No, a landlord cannot file a Writ of Possession without first obtaining a judgment for eviction through the legal eviction process. The Writ of Possession is a court order that allows law enforcement to remove a tenant from a property, but it requires that the landlord has formally filed for and received an eviction judgment. Without this prior step, the landlord does not have the legal standing to file for a Writ of Possession.
