Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Liam's family in Huntsville
After a cut in working hours, Liam is 3 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $4,350.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, we must leave.
I have a teenager still in school at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working extra hours at a market stall, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent.
Where the $4,350 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,950
• Late fees and court costs: $260
• Utilities in arrears: $155
• First month of rent as a buffer: $985
Thanks for being kind about this.

Stay strong. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
