    No, you do not go to jail for an eviction. You can go to jail only for criminal cases. An eviction is a civil case, not criminal. When you lose a criminal case it costs you your freedom. When you lose a civil case it only costs you money.

    Lisa is 100% correct, but I'm not clear here about something. What do you mean you had 2 evictions? Did your landlord try to evict you for non payment but you paid up then fell behind again? Or are you being evicted from a second home? Or what?

    Also I'm moving this to Real Estate Law forum.
