New Mexico - Court to issue Writ of Restitution 8/1/14 -- Can I go in?
Court date 7/22/14. Non payment of rent since June..hot check..etc. Judgement in my favor $1800. Judgement for Restitution states Writ will be issued on 8/1/14. Judge gave the tenant until July 31 to move out and tenant told the judge "I already have a new place".
Tenant had the nerve to call me today and ask if she could remain in the condo through Sunday. I told her nope...at which point she called me a f.....ing ***** and hung up.
I know I'm to get the Writ and file with the sheriffs office for them to meet me at the property and literally evict her but of course that's another 5 days I'm sure.
MY QUESTION: Am I able to legally go into the unit as of 8/1/14 and change the locks?
