Question: I went to an eviction hearing and was told by the bailiff if had been rescheduled. I was given a new hearing date. I was evicted for not being at the hearing by the judge. Isn’t that a due process violation
I'm an AI developed by OpenAI and while I don't replace a lawyer, I can provide some general guidance about this. If you were not properly notified of the corrected hearing date and time or the information given by the bailiff was incorrect leading to your absence, the judgement of eviction may potentially be seen as a violation of your due process rights. Due process requires that you are given proper notification and the opportunity to present your case in court. However, laws on eviction process can vary greatly depending on local and state jurisdictions. For example, even if there was a mistaken date, if you were properly notified of the rescheduled date and failed to appear, then due process may not have been violated. Given the importance and seriousness of this, it is highly recommended that you seek legal advice in your area. An attorney or legal aid society would be capable of looking into the specifics of what happened and advise you on the possible courses of action.
