OK im going to make this short but simple..I have a court date to go to court on March 21st to evict me from my apartment due to non payment of rent..How long from the day in court do I have to stay here.I need to know as soon as possible as Iam on a very low income and I recive only a minimum amount of money and I have 3 children.I DO NOT have section8. PLEASE HELP I LIVE IN NEWARK NEW JERSEY.
yes about the fastest I have gotten a date for a officer to come over and watch us move the funture out was about one week, just a matter of scheduling and also giving legal notice if the person was not in court.
Now we are a smaller town, so about the longest it takes us is about two weeks. But I could image that a larger court may have a longer backlog.
But if you are in need you do need to try and get into section 8, that is what they are there for.
Thank You for you help.However if it isnt one thing its another.In the city I live in is NOTHING like TN.The section 8 list is CLOSED because there is so many people on it.I use to live in TN and I'll tell ya that was the best life.I got section 8 in Tn in 2 weeks and here in NJ the section 8 list is closed for 5 years.
I am sorry, I beleive section 8 is important to people who need it. I would love to have section 8 people in all my rentals, I know I will get paid that way.
1) contact social services to see if they can provide any help, either in paying rent or delaying the eviction
2) contact the housing court and see if they can give you time frames.
The NJ statutes site is undergoing revamping so I can't find any specific references. The court may, in fact, hand down an order to move within 3 days. But to enforce that order, the landlord will have to hire a sheriff or the equivalent to oversee your being put out. So the scheduling of that may take longer. If your court date is 3/21, plan on being out before the end of the month.
The answer was of help.However out here being that I do not recive WELFARE benifits I cannot get help in a shelter because u need a referral.The only income I recive is survior benifits for my sons being that there father passed away.And my brother has a part time job making less then 300 every 2 weeks.
Well, maybe your brother should be out collecting cans in between working part time. I dunno. Maybe you could strap the little ones on your back and help him. Yeah, they'll be uncomfortable. But they're gonna be MORE uncomfortable if you get thrown out on the street.

Dont blow the question out of portion.I never said I was going to be homeless.I was just curious as to how much time I had after the court date.The saying about strapping the kids to my back isnt even funny and If you dont have anything sensible to say dont even bother.
People who are responding to my question..please keep in MIND alls Iam asking is after the 3 DAY period how long did I have till they actually lock the door..Im already in the proccess of getting another apartment but thats not UNTIL APRIL 1ST and my court date is the 21st.Thanks
In Essex County you will probably be ok until April 1st. But to be sure call the Essex County Sheriff's Office on Monday and ask them how long it takes to get an eviction performed if they are provided with a judgment for eviction on the 21st of March.
