Reg. 55,292 (Sept. 4, 2020). This guidance document does not create or impose any obligations on any member of the public or any entity beyond those established by the Order.
This guidance document is not a comprehensive summary of the duties and obligations under the Order. Individuals should seek the assistance of a legal aid program or private legal counsel (as applicable) for questions relating to the application of the Order to their individual circumstances.
What does the Order do?
The Order temporarily halts residential evictions of covered persons for nonpayment of rent during
September 4, 2020, through December 31, 2020. This means that a landlord, owner of a residential
property, or other person with a legal right to pursue an eviction or a possessory action cannot evict for nonpayment of rent, any covered person from any residential property in any U.S. state or U.S. territory where the Order applies. We explain where the Order applies and who is covered later in this document.
