Reply #52: the sheriffs dept who do the evictions are the police and in many places have more power and authori

[vadawg]

the landlord gets the eviction order from the court, he contacts the sheriffs office, a deputy is assigned to work the eviction, the deputy checks his calendar and gives the owner the date of the eviction when he will be free to do the eviction and what resources the owner needs to bring ie truck, how many bodies to load the vehicle. We are there to maintain the peace and to make sure the evictee leaves the property. and it becomes a criminal matter when you dont leave or start to brandish a weapon...
