Although court proceedings were allowed to continue in Vermont after May 31, 2020, evictions are banned until the state ends its declared emergency. Check with your local court to determine whether evictions are proceeding.

A judicial emergency has, for all intents and purposes, halted evictions in Vermont. A bill that would suspend evictions is currently working its way through the legislature. Contact your landlord to try and come to an agreement if you cannot pay your rent due to the pandemic.
