A quick definition of summary eviction:

A summary eviction is when someone is legally forced to leave a rental property without a full trial. This can happen if the landlord follows a simplified legal procedure. It is different from other types of eviction, like constructive eviction where the landlord makes the property unfit to live in, or retaliatory eviction where the landlord tries to evict the tenant for complaining or disagreeing with them. A total eviction means the tenant loses all rights to the property, while a partial eviction means they are only forced to leave part of it.

A more thorough explanation:

Summary eviction is a legal process of removing a person from a rental property or land without a full trial. It is a simplified procedure that does not require formalities of a full trial.

For example, if a tenant fails to pay rent, the landlord can file for a summary eviction to remove the tenant from the property. The landlord does not have to go through a lengthy trial to get the tenant evicted.

Summary eviction is different from other types of eviction, such as constructive eviction, where the landlord makes the property unfit for occupancy, or retaliatory eviction, where the landlord evicts the tenant in response to complaints or disagreements.

Overall, summary eviction is a quick and efficient way for landlords to remove tenants who violate the terms of their lease or fail to pay rent.
