It can take up to three days to serve, then you can file in court after the 3-day period. 

Even if they did have daily data we could get in front of them by using the court dockets to see everything before it gets to the recorders  site.

Section 8 can be a profitable and reliable resource but it is 'their ball, their court' so know the rules first.

Well anyone can write anything into a contract, but whether it is legal and enforceable is for the courts to decide...It is State law here that a contractor must call 811 or they are liable for the costs.

So even if you pick a state with stronger protections like WY or NV, the cause of action arose in the state where the tenant fell, so likely that the court where the accident happened would have jurisdiction.

My question is if she doesn't pay in 5 days, could I file a forcible entry detainer at the court ( We are in Macoupin County Illinois)?

MA has a lot of courts, not a small state as you know.    

The only thing I would mention here is you shouldn't have anything in your lease that a court would consider unreasonable, in case you ever need to go to court.

In that case, you’d typically need to file a legal challenge, which could involve going to court and showing that the restriction is unnecessary or unreasonable.The best advice I can give would be to consult a real estate attorney to understand your specific situation and options.

If a person owns a rental property in IN and if something happens on that property, the cause of action (lawsuit) would go before a court in IN, with an IN judge, citing IN law.
