Federal Judge Rules Eviction Ban Unconstitutional<\/h1>\n
\n

A federal judge in Texas has ruled that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s eviction moratorium is unconstitutional, a decision that could set legal precedent and have a sweeping effect on housing providers across the country. Under the moratorium, which President Joe Biden has extended through March,\u00a0housing providers cannot evict tenants who can prove financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

U.S. District Judge John Campbell Barker sided with a group of property managers and landlords who brought a lawsuit against the CDC, claiming the agency overstepped its authority by issuing the eviction ban. \u201cThe federal government cannot say that it has ever before invoked its power over interstate commerce to impose a residential eviction moratorium,\u201d Baker wrote in his decision. \u201cThe federal government has not claimed such a power at any point during our nation\u2019s history until last year. \u2026 Although the COVID-19 pandemic persists, so does the Constitution.\u201d<\/p>\n

The judge has not yet issued an injunction striking down the moratorium, though he suggested he could at a later time. Such a move would allow evictions to resume immediately in Texas.<\/p>\n

Housing providers argue that the CDC eviction moratorium has left them with a growing number of nonpaying tenants. But proponents of the ban call it a \u201ccritical pandemic mitigation measure that protects health and safety by preventing the community spread of COVID-19 due to eviction,\u201d Emily Benfer, a visiting professor of law at Wake Forest University, told CNBC.<\/p>\n

Unsuccessful court challenges to the eviction moratorium have occurred in Georgia, Louisiana, and Tennessee. The CDC has not yet commented publicly on the Texas federal judge\u2019s ruling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
