NOTICE TO TENANTS: READ THESE PAPERS CAREFULLY
YOUR LANDLORD WANTS TO EVICT YOU
9:00
ON __________________, 20_____ AT
A.M, you must come to the Marion County Courthouse located at 100 High
St. NE, Salem, Oregon. You do not have to pay any fees to the court for this first hearing.
If you do not appear in court and your landlord does, your landlord will win automatically and can have the Sheriff
physically remove you.
If you do show up in court and your landlord does not, this eviction action will be dropped.
If both of you show up:
The judge may ask you to try to reach an agreement with your landlord, but this is voluntary. Trained
mediators are available free of charge to help resolve disputes.
The court will schedule a trial if you and your landlord do not reach an agreement or if you do not agree to
move out - and an answer is filed.
IF YOU WANT A TRIAL YOU MUST:
Show up in court at the time scheduled above;
On the same day, file an Answer with the Court by close of business (5:00 pm) giving a legal reason why you
should not be evicted (the Court can give you a form);
Give a copy of the Answer to your landlord (or your landlord’s agent or attorney); and
Pay a filing fee (the judge may allow payment to be deferred in certain circumstances).
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, YOU SHOULD SEE AN ATTORNEY IMMEDIATELY. If you need help finding an
attorney, please call the Oregon State Bar’s Lawyer Referral Service at 503-684-3763 or toll-free in Oregon at 800-452-7636.
