    Outright Possession Order

     

    The judge will issue an outright possession order to the tenant(s) to vacate a property on a specific date. If the tenant(s) fail to vacate a property on the specific date given, the landlord can proceed and apply for a Warrant of Eviction.

     

    The judge can postpone the possession order of the property for a total of 42 days if the tenant(s) provide satisfactory arguments or proof that he/she/they would suffer extreme or exceptional hardship if they were forced to leave the property early.

     

    Otherwise the outright possession order is served after the hearing which can take effect immediately (or within 14 to 28 days after the court hearing).

     

    Under this condition, the tenant(s) can be awarded some sort of relief on the possession order after the court hearing. The tenant(s) can remain in the property on specific conditions:

     

    If the tenant(s) respect the conditions attached to the suspended possession order which can be the result of rent arrears, the tenant(s) will stay on the condition that the current monthly rent is paid in full plus a proportion of the arrears to clear the outstanding debt on the rent.

     

    If the tenant(s) failed to comply with the new arrangement following the suspended possession order, the landlord can apply to the court for bailiff assistance to evict the tenant(s).
