Bill > SB644

This bill amends Arkansas law regarding the execution of a writ of possession (a legal document ordering the eviction of tenants from a property) by adding specific provisions for handling manufactured homes or mobile homes during an eviction. The bill clarifies that after a 24-hour notice period, if the defendants remain on the property, the sheriff can help remove their possessions and store them safely. Additionally, the bill introduces new requirements for manufactured or mobile homes: defendants must remove or arrange for the removal of their home within 30 days of the writ's service, and the removal costs will be the responsibility of the home's owners. If the manufactured or mobile home is not removed within the specified timeframe, the court can issue an order declaring the home abandoned upon the plaintiff's motion. These provisions provide a structured process for handling residential property and mobile homes during eviction proceedings, offering both the property owner and the defendants a clear framework for addressing possession and removal.
