Eviction

[Andre Smith]

i have a situation where a tenant didnt pay rent in september. I followed the nebraska eviction procedures. I had a constable try and serve a summons. They didnt answer and apparently i didnt file a paper that allows them to leave the notice. Court was postponed. Then i had something come up that required me to leave the country for 2 weeks. I am back and have filed the corrext paper work and a new court date is set. But my tenant has disappeared. Doesn't respond to any contact and has moved what i would say is everything they wanted, iut of the house. But i do not have their keys or garage door openers. Can i change the locks and garage codes and take back the property and begin work while i wait for court. At this point i am not as interested in restitution as getting the property back up and rented to another, better tenant!
