Detroit will require certificate of occupancy to eviction legal?

36th district court in Detroit said later this year it will not accept eviction filings without a certificate of occupancy.

Im wondering if that's legal to force you to allow people to continue to live in your property?

Cleveland and suburbs have been doing this for a while.

If you didn't register it as a rental timely, you will need to do so and pay any late fees before filing.

Self help eviction will still get you fined - first for the self help eviction, then for not filing rental registration!

Just follow the rules.
