The first action against you is an eviction, where the landlord is trying to force you out. The second action is for monetary damages, most likely past due rent. You may be able to negotiate a date to move out, but if your husband's testimony is needed you probably would want to move the hearing to another date.
If you do not show up, the landlord will get a default judgment against you and your husband, most likely for the full amount the landlord is seeking. The landlord may then attempt to collect by attaching your bank accounts or garnishing the wages of you or your husband. Dan J. Weisenburger Attorney at Law Weisenburger Law Offices, LLC
