Judge Dugan needs removed. He is hurting landlords while allowing non paying tenants to stay rent free for over a year now. He obviously is not a landlord.

They've gotten way better over the years. More organized in there.

What certified letter must be sent to tenant from landlord

howard lloyd | Oct 17, 2019
Philadelphia Municipal Court - Criminal Division | Oct 17, 2019

When a landlord desires to evict a tenant, the first step in the process is a notice to vacate. Unless otherwise stipulated in the lease, the notice must be done in writing. It is not a requirement for the notice to be sent via certified mail; however, the suggestion is made as it provides a proof of mailing.

You have to go to Family Court (not Municipal Court) and I'm pretty sure you must do it in person.
