COLUMBUS, Miss. (WLBT) - Did you know that in Mississippi, if a tenant is evicted from their home, state law considers their property abandoned?
This means the landlord can immediately seize their possessions and do whatever theyâd like with them.
Now The Low Income Housing Clinic at the University of Mississippi School of Law is filing a federal lawsuit on behalf of their client Samantha Conner.
The 19 page document shows Conner was renting an apartment at Chateaux Hills apartments in Columbus.
