AUSTIN – The Texas Supreme Court has voted to halt most residential evictions through April 19 as part of the state’s response to COVID-19.
The order allows for new filings but states no trial, hearing, or other proceedings can be held until after April 19.
An exception will be allowed if the court finds the tenant poses an imminent physical threat to the landlord or is conducting criminal activity.
