On Friday, December 14 (the day after the December 13 trial), judgment could enter in favor of the landlord or tenant. Then, the losing party has ten days -- until Monday, December 24 -- to file a notice of appeal. If the landlord prevails and neither party appeals from the decision, execution could issue on Wednesday, December 26 (because Tuesday, December 25, is a holiday). A sheriff could then serve the tenant with forty-eight hours' notice of eviction and, if the tenant remains on the premises, physically evict the tenant two days later, on Friday, December 28. Based on this timeline, approximately nine weeks would elapse between the date on which the tenant received a notice to quit and the date on which he or she could be forcibly removed from the property.
