The Eviction Moratorium Is Extended After President Acknowledges That is Unconstitutional.
Aug 11, 202100:11:40Tap to summarizeAfter acknowledging that the CDC did not have the legal authority to extend the eviction moratorium, and after Congress could not get the votes for a legislative moratorium, President Biden still directed the CDC to extend the eviction moratorium through October 3, 2021. The CDC moratorium applies in those counties that are considered to have "high" or "substantial" community transmission levels for COVID-19. We suspect there will be numerous lawsuits challenging the validity of the order, but property owners need to know their rights in the interim. Join Zona Law Attorneys Scott Baluha and Mark Zinman to discuss the newest CDC eviction moratorium order.

Jun 9, 202100:48:19Tap to summarizeASU Constitutional Law Professor Ilan Wurman joins Mark Zinman on the Zona Law Podcast to discuss the constitutional issues raised by federal and state eviction moratoriums that have been implemented over the past 15 months. Currently, there are several federal lawsuits challenging the Center for Disease Control eviction moratorium, including one case that is being appealed to the United States Supreme Court. Whether or not something is constitutional, implicates numerous areas of the law and legal principles. We were lucky to have Professor Wurman join us to discuss these complicated issues. Professor Wurman provides an excellent, in depth analysis of the issues, in an understandable and approachable manner. As of June 8, 2021, while there are cases holding the CDC unconstitutional, those rulings are stayed on appeal, and thus the CDC eviction moratorium continues to be enforced.
