What It Is Not
It is not immediate eviction by itself and it is not the same as an RDC order.

Where You’ll See It
You will see it in landlord-tenant disputes, renewal discussions, notice-service questions, RDC preparation.
Process Context
This concept sits at the pre-dispute notice stage before an eviction claim or possession action can proceed. It should help the user distinguish this concept from adjacent terms in the same process chain rather than flattening the sequence into one generic label.
Jurisdiction Note
