On April 7, the California attorney general issued updated guidance for California tenants that encourages them to take control of their rights under the state Judicial Council’s April 6 emergency eviction rule. The guidance alerts tenants that nothing in the emergency rule stops landlords from filing new eviction cases but it prevents them from proceeding for 90 days after the ongoing state of emergency is lifted. It also encourages tenants to research local eviction moratoriums that may provide additional protections.
