Eviction Order to Sheriff Lockout Timing
Hi team, unfortunately cash for keys and a few other mitigation strategies did not work and we needed to leave it to court. After several months the judge officially ordered an eviction with the cook county sheriffs office. It has been just over 2 months since the eviction was ordered (8 months all in at this point) and my attorney has been unresponsive to call, email and text (left them a google score as a request for communication). I am watching the cook county eviction log and emailed the sheriffs department with no luck. Hoping to learn any tips you may have and can help me problem solve:
Is there a clear way to understand where an eviction order is in the sheriffs department queue?
How long are your sheriff lockouts taking in Chicago once the judge has ordered?
Happy to share link and case number but figured that was sensitive to posting rules.
