Tenant reimbursement of eviction filing fees

[Diane Kruse]

Hi,

I can't find anything that says whether I can or can't have a clause in my lease that the tenant will pay for eviction filing fees if the court date is cancelled due to the tenant either paying rent or correcting the violation prior to the hearing. Does anyone know for sure? I know I cannot say the tenant has to pay my legal bills for the eviction. Is this considered the same thing if they decide to fix the situation and stay prior to the hearing?
