Make Amendments Io Regulations On Rent Pertain Mostly To Evicting Tenants In line with the government's policy to continue the fight against inflation, certain amendments have b*-en appended to the maximum rent regulations. These amendments pertain particularly to evictions. Final, all of section « (a) 6 which used to permit eviction* for She purpose of remodeling and demolition of the property has been eliminated from tho regulation In its former form and It la now necessary. before a notice can be serv,ed upon a tenant alleging the.-e grounds, that a petition be filed in the area rent office and the landlord procure a certificate permitting the eviction before a tenant can be removed, to ’his type of case, toe area rent director can deny the petition or giant the same, imposing a waiting period of six months upon the eviction a* a maximum before a tenant may be evicted. • Secondly, section 6 (a) 4 has Seen amended in aucli a inunner that a landlord owning property on October I. 1912, and seeking in good faith to occupy for his own home, may no longer evict a tenant alleging au< h grounds iu a notice to a tenant and -ervlng a copy on the rent office. The amended regulation provides that no tenant may lie evicted under this section unless the landlord alleges that there is "an Immediate compelling necesidty" upon the landlord to obtain poMexaion, or a landlord j i>M served during the period of the war emergency In the armed force- of the t'nited States, and in good faith seeks posMwslon foi his own occupancy. Therefore. It bw ‘ oomes nooeaaary for a tend lord . who owned the property on the ef- ' fectlve date and cannot meet the two above requirements, to file a petition for permission to evict the tenant and abide by the determination of the rett director, who may again limit the right of poa•easion up to six months.

He would not know for sure whether it wo«4ld go through for about two weeks Couldn’t she plan on coming back with him?
