An "unlawful detainer" is a legal complaint a landlord files in court to remove someone from their property, essentially seeking a judgment that the tenant no longer has the right to stay. Common reasons for filing an unlawful detainer include non-payment of rent, violation of lease terms, or refusal to vacate after the lease has ended.
