    Does Eviction paperwork have to be exact?
    Myself and my sister are in the process of being evicted from an apartment for non-payment of rent ( we can't afford the rent increase). The paperwork received so far has my sister's name wrong (With different last name) and I am not even listed on the 3 day notice and the rest of the paperwork. I have lived here for several years and the Manager knows that I have.

    Is this enough to negate the eviction process and make the landlord start the process over again? I am trying buy some time before I have to leave

    Hello c:

    Yes, and no. Sure, they should have the right name. But, even though they evicted "john doe", when the sheriff comes to put him out, they'll put you out too.

    I was going to ask who is on the lease but this is a far better answer!

    You may be just a guest or other household member if the original rental or lease was in just your sisters name.

    And no I doubt it will be enough to stop the eviction. But you can try of course if you get a liberal judge that is very pro tenant, they may rule in your favor
