What can a landlord do if the tenant does not move out of the unit by the date set out in the eviction order?
Orders issued by the Board are legally binding decisions - they must be obeyed. If the tenant is ordered to leave by a specific date and has not, then the landlord can file the eviction order at the Court Enforcement Office, pay the applicable fee, and ask the Sheriff to remove the tenant from the unit.
The Sheriff will usually give the tenant a notice that tells them the date they will come to the unit to evict the tenant. If the tenant has not moved out by that date, the Sheriff will go to the unit and remove the tenant from the unit. The locks on the unit can then be changed.
Only the Sheriff can evict a tenant who does not leave a unit as directed by an eviction order issued by the Board.
