Rule 6 Judgment on Trial by Court

If, after hearing the evidence the court concludes that the complaint is not true, it shall enter judgment against the plaintiff for costs. If the court finds the complaint true or if judgment is rendered by default, the court shall render a general judgment against the defendant and in favor of the plaintiff, for restitution of the premises and the costs of the action. If the court finds the complaint true in part, it shall render judgment for the restitution of such part only, and the costs shall be taxed as the court deems just and equitable. Any person who shall become a subtenant of the premises or any part thereof after the service of notice as provided in these rules shall be bound by the judgment. No provision of these rules shall be construed to prevent the bringing of an action for damages. HISTORY: Effective June 1, 2012
