Atlanta Mayor to Halt Evictions - What does this mean?

[Nicholas LaGatta]

Keisha Lance Bottoms posted this on Facebook, but I'm not clear exactly what it means and what the implications are.  Does this only apply to the "partners" listed in the first paragraph?  Are there broader implications?  What are the unintended consequences here?

It doesn't have force of law, but it also doesn't really matter, because the courts are all closed down, anyway. Can't get a writ of possession if the courts are closed. Evictions are effectively in limbo until the courts open again.
