[RPPTL Leasing Committee] Eviction Question

[RPPTL Real Estate Leasing Committee]

Arlene:

In Escambia County, when a tenant claims an interest in the property, our county judge transfers the case to circuit court for an ejectment action with leave to amend the complaint and a limited time to pay the circuit court filing fee.  Looks like you are going to  have to try title.

Subject: [RPPTL Leasing Committee] Eviction Question

 Notice: External
My client (landlord) sent a short  notarized offer to sell to the tenant who is interested in buying the property.  the tenant typed on the top of  the  page "Agreement For Deed" and also typed in the legal description.  He then recorded the document and now shows up on the Property Appraiser's website..

We will be in Circuit Court to clear the title, but my client wants him out of the property ASAP, therefore the eviction.  I filed the eviction papers in County Court, and the defendant's lawyer filed a Motion to Dismiss, alleging he has an interest in the property and therefore cannot be evicted.  No rent has been paid into the Court.

Should I file  a default against the tenant or set the Motion to Dismiss for Hearing? or another avenue?  Thanks. Arlene
