CA Unlawful Detainer - when do hold over damages begin? $600 Punitive damages?

Anonymous Dec 8, 2011 2 views 1 answers

What date do the holdover damages begin and end? From the date after the three day ends? Until after the Sheriff lockout? I assume the $600 punitive damages are different than holdover damages? Where do I ask for that in my Declaration filing for Money Judgment after Default. Under "Other"?

Yes the $600 are for malicious conduct. That is not the same as holdover damages. Holdover damages begin the day after the period stated in the 3 day notice until the date of judgment.
