CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC/AP/CNN) - More than 21,000 eviction cases have been filed across five of the stateâs most populous counties, including Charleston County, despite a federal moratorium that remains in effect.
Of those 21,000 cases filed in Charleston, Horry, Richland, Lexington and Greenville Counties, about 10% of those cases resulted in a âwrite of ejectment,â meaning their cases advanced far enough in court that those renters and their families could be ordered to leave by authorities, according to an examination of court records by The Sun News and The State newspapers.
