This is a three-step process:

1. Notice to Quit (this can be a 3-day or 10-day notice, served by the Sheriff's Office).
2. Forcible Entry and Detainer (this will involve a court date).
3. Writ of Possession (this is the actual eviction).

We are unable to provide legal advice. You will have to seek legal counsel if necessary.
