The court costs themselves are the smallest line on that ledger. The lost rent is the big one. Texas Property Code <a href="https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/PR/htm/PR.24.htm#24.005">Section 24.005</a> sets the 3-day default notice period unless the lease says otherwise, and the speed of the rest of the process depends entirely on getting that first step right.</p>
