In Colorado I have a tenant whom I gave 30 day notice in January stating her tenancy is terminated as of March 1st. I have several good reasons for terminating the lease.
She says she can stay and she intends to stay until she is forcibly evicted.
Do I have to wait until March 2nd to file an unlawful detainer lawsuit?
Can I file it now with a court date shortly after March 1st? And then withdraw the case if she moves out?
It costs less than $100 to file and that is much less than then lost rent caused by waiting until the 2nd to file and setting a court date a week after she is served. Damages would be pointless because I have no expectation of ever being able to collect. I just want the unit back and her out ASAP.
