Evictions; reduce time for.
HB 1369 modifies Mississippi eviction procedures to set strict timelines and protect tenants' rights. It requires eviction notices to be posted on the property door and mailed within 72 hours of filing, mandates court hearings within 14 days, and removes judges' authority to extend the tenant's move-out period beyond seven days after a judgment. Tenants who pay all owed rent by the court-ordered date may stay, and landlords must allow 72 consecutive hours after eviction for tenants to remove belongings. The bill directly affects landlords and tenants in rental disputes across Mississippi.
