Serve Notice How to serve a notice legally	Serve notice. Copy sent to tenant and sheriff. Note: this is the only copy sent to tenant.
Court Appearance	No court appearance required. Schedule eviction.
Post-judgment	No eviction can be ordered more than 60 days after judgment. Eviction cannot take place on Sunday or holiday. Sheriff must be present during eviction.

Once property is removed from the premise, the tenant is responsible for its safety.
