Eviction ban extended
Thursday, July 23, 2020 by Elizabeth Pagano
As anticipated, Travis County Judge Sam Biscoe has extended the moratorium on evictions until Sept. 30. The order prohibits landlords from filing notices to vacate, which initiate the beginning of the eviction process. Eviction hearings have also been put on hold until the end of September, which means evictions won’t be processed while that hold is in place.
