What the CDC Eviction Ban Means for Landlords and Property Owners 

This policy briefing will also include ample time for audience Q&A with PLF attorneys

October 14, 2020, at 3:00 p.m. EDT / 12:00 p.m. PDT

Virtual via Zoom

 

In early September, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released an order prohibiting eviction for non-payment of rent across the nation for certain qualifying tenants. The order represents a sweeping assumption of new powers by the CDC. It was adopted without prior notice to landlords or an opportunity to comment and has prompted confusion among landlords and local courts nationwide.  

Join attorneys from Pacific Legal Foundation as they break down the CDC’s order. Discussion topics include:

  • What exactly does the CDC’s order prohibit?  
  • Should the government be allowed to foist the economic burdens of the pandemic on landlords?
  • What rights do landlords and property owners have in this situation?
  • What is PLF doing to challenge this law?

This is a public event. Please forward this invitation to any colleagues that may be interested in this program, and feel free to post event details on your website or social media platforms. Reach out to Lauren McCue (LMcCue@pacificlegal.org) with any questions.
