Happening in many counties coast to coast.

They want to reduce the risk of spread in court offices through filing actions as well as to make sure that exposed/infected people aren’t tossed out on the street.

Good luck collecting that.

No property tax, mortgage or HOA fees
No utilities either if that is included
