If the notice of the court is not sent to the proper address on the tenant’s lease, the tenant can file a Motion to Enforce. The deadline for filing a motion to enforce is 30 days from the date of service. The Court will usually hold a hearing within 60 days of the Notice being served on the tenant.
At this time, the landlord has 20 days to move to vacate the writ. Failure to remove the tenant prior to the expiration of this 20 day period requires the sheriff to serve the Notice and Posting to secure the premises in the name of the Landlord/Tenant at the expiration of the original notice.
This means that you have to leave your rental property Vacant notice within five days after the landlord files a suit against you for possession. This is what happens if you don’t pay the rent, damage the property, or violate other terms of your lease agreement.
You can’t go back into your apartment after the writ is delivered to the sheriff and before the expiration of the 20-day time period. The landlord will put up signs on the property stating that you are not allowed to come back into the apartment. You will not be allowed to stay there if you fail to pay your rent or damage the property. In some cases, the landlord will even try to have you arrested for trespassing.
