Landlord Covid move out question

I bought a 5 unit apartment building.  Previous owner said he had 2 evictions filed on Units A and B.  He said he will continue to finish the eviction process even while I owned it on those two tenants.  Tenant in Unit B got arrested and has been in jail for a few weeks with a court date for their criminal act in September.  The previous landlord decided to move out the tenants possessions into a storage unit, even though the actual eviction hasn’t taken place.  I moved a new tenant into the unit now but I am nervous that there could be some legal ramifications.  Does anyone know how this should be handled and what my liability is.  

I also called the lawyer he is doing the evictions with and she said the eviction court dates are set for August 7. 

Building is in Indiana 
any advice would be helpful
