information to find each of the defendants who need to be served with the
summons and complaint. Read Section I below before filling out this
form.
g. Judgment for Possession (CIV-300). Fill in the case caption and the
description and location of the property. The court will fill in the rest of
the form if you are successful at the eviction hearing.
h. Writ of Assistance (CIV-575). You may need this form if the tenant does
not move out by the date the judge sets at the eviction hearing. This writ
gives a peace officer the authority to remove the tenant. Fill in the case
caption and the description and location of the property. The court will fill
in the rest of the form if the writ is necessary. If the judge signs this form
and the tenant does not move out, you will need to work with your local
law enforcement agency to help you enforce the writ. Law enforcement
may charge a fee for this.
