Thank you Kyle 

Thank you all for your comments! One question, will the eviction court still hear my case and if this still counts as eviction on his record? Unfortunately I don’t have his new address. He left me a voicemail before move out acknowledging he owes me rent, even though he does not return my calls right now. I just want the rent to be paid back, not necessarily damaging his credit. I thought he would call back and we can arrange payment and withdraw eviction filing. 

Two months before my tenant‘s lease is up, he stopped paying. I filed eviction (via PM company) right before Covid-19 shutdown but he was not served by sheriff’s office. During the shutdown period, his lease expired and we didn’t execute another one. He missed two months rent on previous lease, and stayed additional 3 months without lease, without payment. As of 7/1, he moved out and gave back keys. Our eviction court is scheduled to open in mid July. What option do I have? Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts and experiences with me. I do have his one month deposit which is not even close to what he owed. How can I get him to pay me back? He does not respond to my call or texts.
