Missouri eviction steps
- Demand the rent. Rent must be due and demanded, and not paid. No statutory pay-or-quit notice period applies to rent and possession. (RSMo §535.020)
- File the verified statement. File with the associate circuit judge in the county where the property is located; the clerk issues a summons. (RSMo §535.020)
- Hearing and execution. After judgment, the landlord asks the court for execution (the order to restore possession). Ask the clerk about the current waiting period in your county.
