A: There are certain requirements a landlord must follow before eviction, including serving the tenant with a notice to quit, and then filing an eviction suit and getting a writ of eviction. It sounds like this process may not have been followed in your case. It would be best for you to consult with a landlord tenant attorney in your area and see if you have been constructively evicted by the church. If you are elderly or low income, you could try reaching out to the Detroit Free Legal Aid Clinic, https://www.detroitflac.com/. You could also try the United Community Housing Coalition, https://www.uchcdetroit.org/. Reach out to a landlord tenant attorney in your area for more information.
