Can I collect money from a tenant during the eviction appeal process in Texas?

Under Texas property laws, tenants with a lease should always continue paying rent even if they have filed an appeal that is pending. However, during this period, rent will be paid to the court as demanded in a Justice Court Judgment. This means that the court will hold your money while the appeal is moving forward. While a landlord may receive the money when he/she wins the appeal, they will not be able to receive it until they win.

That said, it’s best to let eviction experts handle an eviction appeal case to ensure you get your property back and what is owed to you by your problem tenant fast.
