Judgment - Possession vs. Money Damages

 

Evictions performed improperly may lead to liability.

General Sessions Courts have original jurisdiction in detainer warrant matters. These Courts have the authority to enter a judgment in an unlimited amount for rent and damages while the tenant is in possession. However, assuming the landlord has obtained possession and a civil warrant is filed for collection of rental arrearage and damages, General Sessions Courts will be limited in the jurisdiction amounts. This white paper reviews the service of process and what happens if the landlord breaches the rental agreement.
