A program within TERAP, TEDP is a special program/court process that allows courts to place eviction lawsuits on hold and divert them to the TEDP. Under the TEDP, lump sum payments are provided to landlords for rental arrears in exchange for allowing tenants to remain in their homes and forgiving late fees. This program is for Dallas County residents living outside of the City of Dallas economically affected (loss/reduction of income) by the spread of COVID-19.
