All you need to do is tape a 3 day notice to vacate on the inside of her front door and also mail one.Then after three days go to the Justice of the Peace and file the eviction papers.She will be served or attempts will be made to serve her notice of her pending eviction and a court date.Then you go to court on the court date and if she is a no show,you get a eviction judgement issued.If she doesn't move out after that normally the sheriffs office will come out with a truck and remove her property and then she will have to deal with them to get it back and you have your property back. It cost around $102.00 to file the papers but its the best way. the certifed letter is still valid even though she did not pick it up.It is your proof that you sent her notice.

Complete the “Eviction form for Texas” and have it notarized or sign it in front of one of the Court Clerks. Bring a copy of your “Notice to Vacate” along with the eviction form and any copies that you would like to have for your own records. You’ll be given a court date when you file your eviction with the Texas Court. Find a Lawyer in Texas There are basically four steps in the Texas Eviction process: The notice to vacate Filing the Suit Going to Court Writ of Possession 1. The notice to vacate If a landlord alleges a tenant is not paying rent, the Landlord is required by law to give the tenant written notice to vacate the premises. This notice can be delivered to the tenant personally with a witness, by certified mail (return receipt requested) or by any other method allowed by law. Unless your lease specifically states otherwise, the law requires you to deliver the written notice, and then wait three days before filing your suit in Justice Court. This is a legal requirement which must be met and cannot be overlooked. 2. Filing the Suit - You must file an original petition with the Court and pay court costs of $72 (subject to change). These court costs pay for filing your suit, your court hearing, and for the Constable to serve the citation. The citation is the notice to the tenant that you are attempting to evict him. 3. Going to Court - You must go to Court and prove your case by a preponderance of the evidence. Simply filing a suit does not necessarily mean you will win your suit. You should bring all documents and other evidence with you to Court in a well organized fashion. At the hearing, you will have to present evidence to show that you are entitled to possession of the premises. 4. Writ of Possession - If you have won your suit in Court, and the mandatory five day appeal period has passed, and the other party is still in the premises, you can file a Writ of Possession in Court. A Writ of Possession is a Court order to the Constable to place you in possession of the property. The Writ of Possession will cost you an additional $155 (subject to change), and may be requested at the JP office where the judgment is. The Constable of your particular Precinct can answer your questions about this Writ. How long does it take to evict someone in Texas? From start to finish approximately three weeks. 3 days from notice to vacate to filing of suit 8-10 days to serve the citation- The law requires the defendant have six days notice before the hearing. 5 days to appeal the suit following the hearing required by law. 2 days- The Constable is required by law to post a 24 hour vacate notice on the Writ of Possession 20-23 days is the minimum amount of time to evict someone in any County in Texas. It must also be noted that any eviction suit is subject to appeal to the County Courts-at-Law. Is there a faster way to evict someone? There is a remedy that can shorten the time period from 23 days to ten days if you prevail in Court. This is known as a Bond for Immediate Possession and includes a Notice to Defendant of the Bond for Immediate Possession. By filing a bond for immediate possession, the eviction process could be shortened provided the defendant does not request a trial or post a counter bond. In a Bond for Immediate Possession, you are putting up a bond for surety or cash. If you lose your suit, you could lose all or part of your bond. It must also be noted that any eviction suit judgment may be appealed to the County Courts-At-Law. However, if the defendant requests a trial or files a counter bond, the length of time involved in a Bond For Immediate Possession will be about the same as in a normal Eviction suit FILING AN EVICTION IN TEXAS

If she appears to have left without intending to return, abandonnment may be issue, check your state law. You have to give her late notice, Notice to Quit IN PERSON. Stake out the place, her work, and hand her the notice. File in court for eviction, giving sheriff info on where to find her. Did she move some/most of her stuff out?
