Virginia Court System Eviction Execution Date Reporting

[Patti Robertson]

Has anyone else noticed the new field on the Virginia Court website - Writ of Eviction Executed Date.  We have always had the field for Writ of Eviction Issued Date, but the "Executed" field just popped up a few months ago.  I've been tracking and haven't see any dates entered into the executed date field, so at this point the data isn't accurate.  I have done evictions recently and those date fields are still empty. Once the sheriff offices and general district court clerks figure out a system to get this data entered, it will be way more helpful that what we have had in the past.  In my experience, we cancel about 75% of the evictions we file. Finally our court records are going to be reporting accurate eviction data.
