Hello Stephanie, eviction timelines can vary by jurisdiction. Could you please tell me your location so I can provide you with the most accurate information?

Hello Stephanie, in Kentucky:
- The eviction process starts with a notice period which varies.
- After a judgment, you usually have 7 days to vacate.
- Your eviction timeline begins the day after the judgment.
I suggest contacting a local legal counselor for specific advice.
When I got home last night my power was off and this morning I got a text message from the landlord saying that he was taking the next step and to have the service to put me out I don't supposed to be out until Thursday right
Hello Stephanie, in Kentucky, your landlord cannot shut off your utilities as a form of eviction. This is illegal. If your eviction notice gives you until Thursday, you should have until then. If you experience issues, contact a local legal professional for assistance.
I sent my text message to my legal aid lawyer but I had not heard anything from her
Hello Stephanie, legal aid lawyers often have a high caseload and might be delayed in responding. However, if your situation is urgent, try reaching out through other means like a phone call. Alternatively, you could visit their office in person if possible.
