As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, Pinellas County is already experiencing the impact of the moratorium's expiration on evictions. While the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was authorized to issue protections for certain renters in the country impacted by the coronavirus through the end of the year, the order is more limited than Florida's.
Records indicate that an influx of cases will hit our legal system over the coming months. The majority of individuals and families impacted do not have the resources to respond and recover appropriately. Many landlords and owners are working diligently to connect tenants to resources. However, the financial impact for both owners and tenants is devastating.
