New York Warrant of Eviction Holdover is a court order issued by a judge that allows a landlord to evict a tenant for failing to comply with the terms of a lease or rental agreement. This type of eviction is generally used when a tenant has not paid rent or has violated other provisions of the lease. There are two types of New York Warrant of Eviction Holdover: Nonpayment and Holdover. A Nonpayment Warrant of Eviction is issued when a tenant is delinquent in paying rent or has violated other provisions of the lease. A Holdover Warrant of Eviction is issued when a tenant has remained in the rental unit beyond the term of the lease. In either case, the landlord must file a petition in court to obtain a warrant of eviction. Once the court issues the warrant, the tenant must vacate the unit or face removal by the sheriff.
