| In New Jersey, most evictions for
non-payment do not require any notices prior to
filing a complaint unless there is a written lease
which requires a notice or the tenant receives
governmental assistance. The landlord tenant
division of the Special Civil Part of the law
division handles most non-payment actions.
There are no money judgments awarded there, just
possession. For this reason, unless
complicated issues arise, non-payments are disposed
of in a summary manner, usually on the first court
appearance. |
