- Common law: The legal system that originated in England and is now in use in the United States. It is based on judicial decisions rather than legislative action.
- Writ: A formal written command, issued from the court, requiring the performance of a specific act.
A park owner who gives a resident a notice as provided in section 327C.09, subdivision 3, 4, 6, or 8, or 327C.095, does not waive the notice by afterwards accepting rent. Acceptance of rent for a period after the expiration of a final notice to quit waives that notice unless the parties agree in writing after service of the notice that the notice continues in effect.
Subd. 3.Writ of recovery stayed.
The issuance of a writ of recovery, other than a conditional writ, shall be stayed for a reasonable period not to exceed seven days to allow the resident to arrange to remove the resident’s home from the lot.
Subd. 4.Conditional writ.
Where the interests of justice require the court may issue a conditional writ of recovery, which orders the resident and all those in the resident’s household to stop residing in the park within a reasonable period not to exceed seven days, but which allows the resident’s home to remain on the lot for 60 days for the purpose of an in park sale, as provided in section 327C.07. The writ shall also direct the park owner to notify any party holding a security interest in the resident’s home and known to the park owner, of the provisions of the writ. If the court issues a conditional writ, the resident may keep the home on the lot for 60 days for an in park sale if:
(1) neither the resident nor members of the resident’s household reside in the park;
(2) the resident complies with all rules relating to home and lot maintenance; and
(3) the resident pays on time all rent and utility charges owed to the park owner. If the resident fails to meet any of these conditions, the park owner may, on three days’ written notice to the resident, move the court for an order making the writ of recovery unconditional. Sixty-one days after the issuance of a conditional writ, the writ shall become absolute without further court action.
