TO CREATE THE TENANT POSSESSIONS RECOVERY ACT; AND TO REQUIRE A LANDLORD TO PROVIDE CERTAIN NOTICE TO A TENANT WHEN A COURT HAS ISSUED A WRIT OF POSSESSION.
SB 501, known as the "Tenant Possessions Recovery Act," outlines new procedures for handling manufactured or mobile homes owned by a tenant after a court has ordered them to vacate a leased property. If a court issues an order for the tenant to give up possession, the landlord is not required to store the tenant's manufactured or mobile home. Instead, the tenant is responsible for removing their home at their own expense. The bill further states that if such a home remains on the leased lot 30 days after the court's order, it can be declared abandoned if the landlord makes a motion to the court.
