Answer: Once a bankruptcy is filed, the court places an automatic stay on all legal proceedings, including the eviction of the person that filed the bankruptcy. The stay temporarily stops the landlord from pursuing the eviction. Before proceeding with the eviction, the landlord must go to the bankruptcy court and obtain permission to continue with the eviction. This process can take several months. Once the stay is lifted, however, the landlord may proceed with the eviction.

The national average is 8 weeks from the day you are given the eviction notice until a sheriff shows up to move you. It could take six months or more but . . . be prepared because it could be as soon as a week!
