KQED-
San Francisco’s temporary eviction ban is under threat.
On Monday morning, just two days before rent checks are due, landlord and realtor groups filed a lawsuit in San Francisco Superior Court to suspend the city’s temporary eviction moratorium.
That moratorium — the COVID-19 Tenant Protections Ordinance — halts evictions for nonpayment of rent from April through July, which the San Francisco Board of Supervisors approved in a 10-1 majority in early June to help tenants struggling financially due to coronavirus-related closures.
