My question: What is the difference between a Writ of Possession and a Writ of Execution?

[Letitbeover]

A writ of possession is when a court orders a sheriff to enforce a judgement to put the party in possession of the property allotted.

A writ of execution is when a court orders a sheriff to enforce a judgement to sell the property and pay over the proceeds accordingly.

Hope this helps!

Not exactly - A writ of execution is a common court order granted by a court in an attempt to satisfy a judgment obtained by a plaintiff. When issuing a writ of execution, a court typically will order a sheriff or other similar official to levy property owned by a judgment debtor. Such property will often then be sold in a sheriff's sale, and the proceeds remunerated to the plaintiff in partial or full satisfaction of the judgment. It is generally considered preferable for the sheriff simply to confiscate money from the defendant's bank account. If the judgment debtor owns real property, the judgment creditor can record the execution to "freeze" the title until the execution is satisfied. Writ of execution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
