What if the landlord and tenant can not agree?

There will be a trial and the judge will make the decision. The court order will always say whether the landlord gets the property back. It can also include an order for back rent, lawyer and court costs, and in some cases, statutory damages of up to $600 if the judge finds that the tenant is guilty of malice.
