Californias Tenant Protection Act The only lawful way to evict a tenant is to file lawsuit and wait for the court to order the Sheriff or Marshal to carry out the eviction. Landlords cannot change the locks, shut off power, or remove personal property in order to force a tenant out of their home.
California passed a new landlord-tenant law that will provide additional protections for renters around just cause evictions. The law took effect on April 1, 2024, and requires landlords to have just cause to terminate tenancy after a California tenant has been placed in the unit for 12 months.
In California, a landlord cannot legally lock a tenant out of their rental unit without following the proper legal process. This is considered illegal ``self-help eviction. Here are key points regarding the issue:
If your landlord attempts to force you out without going through the eviction process, contact an attorney. A tenant who is illegally evicted may sue to reoccupy the unit and for damages. A landlord cannot retaliate against a tenant for exercising their rights under the Rent Ordinance or other laws.
A LANDLORD CANNOT EVICT SOMEONE THEMSELF: You cannot evict someone yourself without going through the proper steps. It is against the law. Only the Sheriff can evict someone. That is why you may need an Unlawful Detainer.
