Can a tenant appeal an eviction decision?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Understand_the_reasons_for_eviction\"><\/span>1. Understand the reasons for eviction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nA landlord can evict a tenant in Missouri for various valid reasons, including nonpayment of rent, lease violations, property damage, illegal activities, and expiration of lease term.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Provide_written_notice\"><\/span>2. Provide written notice<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\n**The first step in the eviction process is to provide the tenant with a written notice of eviction, also known as a &#8220;Notice to Quit&#8221;**. The type of notice and the duration provided depend on the reason for eviction. For example, if it&#8217;s due to nonpayment of rent, a landlord must provide a 3-day notice, while for lease violations, a 10-day notice is required.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_File_a_lawsuit\"><\/span>3. File a lawsuit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nIf the tenant doesn&#8217;t comply with the notice or vacate the premises, the landlord can proceed by filing a lawsuit known as an &#8220;Unlawful Detainer&#8221; in the appropriate Missouri court. This lawsuit seeks to regain possession of the property.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Serve_the_tenant_with_a_summons_and_complaint\"><\/span>4. Serve the tenant with a summons and complaint<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nAfter filing the lawsuit, the landlord must serve the tenant with a summons and complaint, informing them of the lawsuit and the date of the hearing.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Attend_the_court_hearing\"><\/span>5. Attend the court hearing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nBoth the landlord and tenant need to attend the court hearing. If the tenant fails to appear, the landlord may win the case by default.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Receive_a_judgment_for_possession\"><\/span>6. Receive a judgment for possession<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nIf the landlord successfully proves their case, the court will issue a judgment for possession. This grants the landlord the right to regain control of the property.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Request_a_Writ_of_Execution\"><\/span>7. Request a Writ of Execution<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nOnce the judgment for possession is obtained, the landlord can request a Writ of Execution from the court. This document allows law enforcement to physically remove the tenant from the premises if they refuse to leave voluntarily.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Eviction_by_law_enforcement\"><\/span>8. Eviction by law enforcement<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\n**With the Writ of Execution in hand, the landlord must coordinate with law enforcement, usually the local sheriff&#8217;s office, to carry out the eviction**. The sheriff will provide a notice to the tenant, specifying when they must vacate the property. If the tenant refuses to leave, law enforcement will physically remove them.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Store_or_dispose_of_tenants_possessions\"><\/span>9. Store or dispose of tenant&#8217;s possessions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nAs a landlord, it is crucial to understand your responsibilities regarding a tenant&#8217;s personal belongings. In Missouri, the landlord must store the tenant&#8217;s possessions for a specific period of time after the eviction. If the tenant fails to claim their belongings, the landlord may dispose of them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs_about_tenant_eviction_in_Missouri\"><\/span>FAQs about tenant eviction in Missouri:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Can_a_landlord_change_the_locks_to_evict_a_tenant\"><\/span>1.
