Either the landlord or the tenant must give the other at least 30 days notice in writing before ending the tenancy. The notice must be given at least 30 days before the next time rent is due. If the rent is due on the first day of the month, the tenancy can only be ended on the first day of the month.
Part of that legislation mandated that landlords were required to extend eviction notices from three days to 30 days. In a recent ruling by the Iowa Supreme Court, the state has now rescinded the extended eviction notice back to three days.
You should get to the Clerk of Courts office as soon as they open, usually at 8 am, and file an appeal to stop the writ of possession.
A Motion to Stay (Delay) Order for Summary Eviction allows the tenant to ask the court to stay (pause) a summary eviction and grant the tenant up to ten more days to move. (NRS 70.010(2); JCRCP 110.) A tenant can file a motion to stay at any time after an eviction notice is served.
Self-help evictions are illegal in most jurisdictions because they bypass the judicial process, which is put in place to protect the rights of both landlords and tenants.

Eviction is a legal process a landlord uses to make you move out. To evict you, your landlord must give you a 3, 30, 60 or 90-day notice. If you get one of these, its important that you take action, like pay the rent you owe, move out, or get legal help.
Once the Writ of Possession is served by the Sheriffs Office, it is the responsibility of the property owner, manager or attorney to contact the Sheriffs Office to schedule an eviction. The eviction must be executed in the day time.
