What happens if a tenant overstays after the eviction order?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have an eviction order for my tenant from the court, and the execution of judgment states that the tenant needs to hand over the premises on February 12th, Monday.

I went by the house today, and it does not seem as though he is planning to move. I wanted to know what happens when he overstays.

What action will the eviction officer undertake on the 12th if he has not moved?

What are the options of enforcement available for the eviction officer?

Dear Client,

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will assist you in this matter.

Based on the information provided, if the tenant overstays, eviction officers can enforce the court order by notifying the tenant to vacate, assisting in removal, involving the police if needed, and imposing penalties for non-compliance.

Coordination with eviction officers and adherence to legal procedures are important for orderly eviction.

For further information, you can contact us through WhatsApp.

Thanks & Regards,

ABDUL WAHIED
