Court order to collect any items available in my home?

I really would like to see any feedback.

Geesh. It's Sunday and the volunteers to this site are likely busy with their families, so be patient please.

You've had 3+ pages of "feedback". Anything additional really needs a personal consult with an attorney.

You delayed in submitting your inventory which was a mistake on your part. If/when the sheriff arrives at your home, all of your personal property is subject to seizure.

Will the sheriff seize clothes or pots and pans? Highly unlikely. But electronic equipment will be vulnerable as would be any “collectible” or other item that might have a high resale value.

You can review your current status with an attorney in your area. Trying to hide valuable assets could be a mistake.

You wrote: “You delayed in submitting your inventory which was a mistake on your part” but I did not find any rule like that. In fact, 222.061(7)) at http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=0200-0299/0222/Sections/0222.061.html states the opposite: “No inventory or schedule to exempt personal property from sale shall be accepted prior to a levy on the property.”

One idea. Send a copy of your exempt asset list to his attorney. He may not want to waste his time or his client's money having the sheriff execute the writ.

See the post I have quoted above.

You should be drafting your inventory now, listing the fair market values of all listed items (e.g., used item’s garage sale or Craigslist’s price), and submitting it to the judgment-creditor’s attorney. Designate which property you believe is exempt from sale.

Make sure to keep a copy of the inventory list and affidavit for your records. You will want them for your court action in case your attempt to forestall seizure of your property fails.

You wrote: “The writ of execution was entered around 4 months ago” so you should have acted on this long before now. You could have submitted to the judgment-creditor a financial disclosure form then. Ignoring the judgment was a mistake.

Consult with an attorney in your area for additional advice and direction.

Good luck.

I know it's hard to believe, but some of us were more concerned with a hurricane coming through the area than they were with providing feedback. Amazing, isn't it?

Selfish volunteers...


EDIT: Lest I be misunderstood - that was intended to be sarcastic towards the OP.

Sorry. I got here as soon as I wanted to.

Totally amazing! You should be ashamed for putting your, your families/friends/island/state concerns over those of the OP. Naughty cbg.

A lot of thanks for clarification and help!
