Bill > SB2328

This bill clarifies and modifies several aspects of Mississippi's eviction and property removal procedures, primarily focusing on residential and recreational vehicle (RV) park tenancies. For residential evictions, the bill specifies that tenants will have seven days to vacate after a judgment, with potential variations for emergencies, and clarifies the process for personal property removal after eviction. Specifically, law enforcement must physically remove occupants and place the landlord in possession, not just post a warrant, and tenants will have 72 hours after removal to retrieve personal belongings. The bill also adds new provisions for RV parks, allowing owners or operators to remove individuals who engage in disruptive behaviors like intoxication, profanity, non-payment of rent, or creating safety hazards. In such cases, the RV park owner can request law enforcement to remove the person, who will then be considered to have abandoned their occupancy rights. The bill explicitly states that refusal of accommodations cannot be based on race, color, national origin, sex, physical disability, or creed, and makes clear that the law does not provide rights to individuals who trespass or remain on a property without the landlord's permission.
