When you receive a writ, it will be assigned to an Authorised High Court Enforcement Officer through the cab rank system called NICE Sheriffs operated by Registry Trust.

To get this paperwork done, you will need to request it on Court Form N293a which is a combined certificate of judgment and writs from your County Court. You can either go online or visit any location that handles such matters within Her Majesty’s Courts Service website for more information about how best suit yourself!

The paperwork for an order of possession is a complicated process. To prepare the form yourself, you must first complete both parts 1 and 2 in accordance with any instructions on their respective pages before mailing them off to your local recorder’s office or court where judgments were entered against yourself as well as state when these occurred so that we can keep track of our time – it also doesn’t hurt if there are additional costs allowed by law since this information would help calculate interest rates too!

The process for obtaining a judgment in court is to begin by returning from the chamber, completing part 3 of this form and sending it with your Writ Of Possession Form 66 so that you may seal up all proceedings.

The court will issue you with a possession order if the tenants have been evicted. A Landlord and Tenant Order for Possession can be obtained under section 42 of The Housing Act 1988, but it’s best to apply in writing instead of doing so orally because there are some additional steps involved which include filling out an application notice (N244).

When the court order for possession is obtained, an application can be made to have it enforced. The fee required when submitting these forms and paying your dues at £71 should not obstacle any potential applicants!

Transfer Your Possession Order to the High Court

The process for transferring an order of possession against a tenant to the High Court in order that they may be enforced.

Step 1 – application to transfer

The application can be made using form N244. A court fee must first undergo permissions under Section 42 of the County Courts Act 1984 before transferring ownership to enforce it in the High Court if necessary.”

The ideal time to apply for this order is when you first start looking at properties.

You’ll need form N244 and the appropriate fee to get permission to apply.

Step 2 – instruct your HCEO

We will ask you whether to issue a writ of possession or a combined one for rent arrears.

Step 3 – the issue of a writ of possession

Once you instruct us, we will manage the rest of this process on your behalf to obtain a Writ. There is an administrative fee for conducting business in court-related matters which are not always necessary but can be taken when needed.”

Step 4 – notice to tenants

The writ of possession is served on the tenant, who has 14 days to vacate before enforcement proceedings begin.

Under current Coronavirus Regulations, claimants who have a possession order in their favour can only enforce Orders which meet certain conditions.

At the current time, outstanding Warrants or Writs of Possession can only be enforced in England if the court is satisfied they relate to an order for possession within one of the exemptions in Regulation 2 of the Public Health (Coronavirus) (Protection from Eviction and Taking Control of Goods) (England) Regulations 2021 or in Wales if the court is satisfied they relate to an order for possession within one of the exemptions in Regulation 2 of The Public Health (Protection from Eviction) (Wales) (Coronavirus) Regulations 2021.

These conditions remain in place until 21 February 2021 and will be reviewed after that date.

If you have a Possession Order in one of these classes you can apply TODAY to the County Court for permission to enforce the Order using a High Court Enforcement Officer.

The advantage of transferring to the High Court for enforcement possession is that there are no backlogs and eviction dates can be booked to suit your timetable.

Our service will help you make an application to a District Judge for permission to transfer your County Court Order for Possession to the High Court.  It is unfortunately not a guaranteed outcome, but we find that for some landlords and claimants in our community, that is a step they are prepared to take to see if they can avoid the delays in the county court system.

An application is made to the Court where you obtained your Order.  We will provide an application drafted by our sister company, Shergroup Legal, together with a supporting Witness Statement setting out how you have been adversely impacted by the COVID crisis.  We will then file the documents at the Court.  We will manage the hearing, and organise representation for you.

The all-inclusive charge for this service is £999 including VAT and all court fees and other disbursements.

If the District Judge is persuaded to make the Order to transfer the proceedings, you can then use our Residential Possession Package to carry out the eviction.

This is charged separately and is booked through this link |
