In New York State, an eviction of a tenant is lawful only if an owner has brought a court proceeding and obtained a judgment of possession from the court. A sheriff, marshal or constable can carry out a court ordered eviction. An owner may not evict a tenant by use of force or unlawful means.
Good Cause Eviction is a New York State law that went into effect on April 20, 2024. It gives some tenants of unregulated (also known as “market rate”) homes in New York City new protections.
The duration of NYC evictions typically ranges from 3 to 6 months. However, the timeline can vary depending on the reason for eviction. Evicting a tenant for lease violations can be resolved within 3 months, while holdover cases may take up to a year, especially if notice requirements were not met.

The warrant tells the sheriff or marshal the earliest date on which an eviction can take place ing to the court's judgment. The warrant also directs the sheriff or marshal to remove all persons who were named in the court case from the premises. For information on obtaining a judgment, click on Judgments.
