  • If tenant can prove and submit a hardship declaration, it must be given to the landlord or landlord’s agent promptly. The landlord or landlord’s agent must submit the signed hardship declaration to the court with the case number (index number) on it.
  • The tenant may also directly submit the hardship declaration to the court with the case number (index number) on it.
  • If this is properly done, the court will stay the eviction until May 1, 2021.
