The federal eviction moratorium first imposed at the onset of the pandemic expired over the weekend, leaving thousands of Arizonans vulnerable to eviction, housing advocates warn.

At the White Tank Justice Court, which serves areas including Goodyear and Litchfield Park, all eviction cases scheduled for Monday were moved to Wednesday, as a result of the FHFA order.
