Eviction for 3 Years of Non-Payment

[Juror#8]

Sheriffs refused LEGAL orders to evict on behalf of the Court and a legally justified (and PAYING) entity. Do you think that they were right or wrong? What would you do?

 

For the Atlanta Sheriffs it's *technically* dereliction of duty and a terminable offense.

Well, she will be dead soon. And it sounds like the family is trying to work with the bank on a payment.

Nothiing wrong with ignoring the rules once in a while to do the right thing. It's one little house. Like the old lady said, she'll be gone soon and they can have it then.

What would I do? If I were the court issuing the order, I'd have never issued the order but instead told the bank "You want to evict a 103 year old woman who's offering to bring the loan current? Uh...lemme think...no."

 

If I were the movers..."I'm not evicting a 103 year old lady. !@#$ that ****."

 

If I were the sherrif...THAT'S a tough one. Probably tell the movers "I'm legally bound by the court's decree...you, however, aren't." And be thankful and back them completely when they said "I'm not evicting a 103 year old lady. !@#$ that ****."
