: Most likely you are being sued for forceable retainer and
: eviction. I am not up to speed on Texas law, but I would suggest
: that you reach a rental agrement with the new owner, or get out
: fast. If the retainer is granted, your stuff may end up out on
: the street. Also the eviction can be posted on your credit report.
: This will make getting a rental agrement more difficult and
: expensive in the future.

Nick -- I have five days to respond to my summons that was delivered on 10-20-02. Fair Housing Dept. is going to assist me in filing my response so do you think this is the right decision or should I seek an attorney. I am hopeful in buying myself about 30 days to find another home for my family. It seems the courts don't give much time to former owners in these cases. It takes more than 3 days to find a new home when you have kids...
