[TN] What should I do if a tenant left damages on my property?

So a bit of a rundown. My parents bought a house in Tennessee about a year and a half ago. They planned on renting it out until they moved this year. I did the initial walkthrough when the house was purchased and there was no damage. As of last July, my parents contracted with a property management company. There were certain conditions verbally stipulated and agreed upon. They were told there would be photos prior to the tenants moving in. Everything seemed fine and the tenants just moved out. I did a walkthrough/final inspection yesterday and found multiple instances of damage. After being provided inspection photos, none of the damage is shown in the originals — it appears the photos were taken while the tenants were moving in, not before. The property management company is claiming the damage was there prior.

[TN] I have four misdemeanor warrants for theft. What happens to the statute of limitations if I leave the country for a job?

I have four misdemeanor warrants for theft. The warrants were just issued in Tennessee. I'm preparing to leave the country for the next year for an underwater welding job. My understanding is that the statute of limitations for a misdemeanor in Tennessee is one year. My question is: do the charges I’m currently facing also have a statute of limitations?

[TN] Can I place a lien on my tenant’s personal property if they don’t pay rent?

I served my Tenant with a 14-day Demand for Rent or Quit Notice (I'm not sure that's the "Official" Title) on Monday. His date to pay is 5/19/2025. His lease expired 4/15/2025, and we attempted to allow him to catch up on his rent with a 45-day lease that he refused to abide by and did not sign. There is a section in the original lease pertaining to Liens, stating that the Tenant gives the Landlord a lien for the Tenant's "personal property located on the premises." Since the original lease expired in April, is that something we are still able to enforce if he does not pay the past-due rent by 5/19/2025, as stated on the 14-day notice I gave him last Monday? Or, is there anything we can do with his property that he has inside and outside the premises if he doesn't pay? Can we prevent him from removing any of the equipment and/or tools that he brought with him in lieu of payment?

[TN] Can I serve my tenants with a 24-hour eviction notice for failing to pay rent?

They have been living in the residence since November of 2024 and have been told to leave but still haven’t left. They were supposed to be paying $800 a month plus their own bills, and they haven’t paid a dime. The electric and water have been coming out of my grandmother’s checking account each month.

[TN] What form does a judge sign for a name change?

I filled an application for name change in Sevier County Tn. I have a docket number. The girls at the courthouse advised me I had to download another form with my case number and that is the form I will personally give to the judge. I have no idea where to find this form.
