Paragraph 31.6 Warrant to eject and re-let where premises displenished

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

If the officer who has executed a warrant for sale, or who was instructed to execute such a warrant, reports to the court that the premises are displenished the landlord may apply to the court to obtain a warrant to cite the defender to a fixed diet at which the sheriff may make such order as appropriate.

(2)

Where a warrant to re-let is granted the rent accruing thereafter shall only be exigible for such period as the tenant continues to occupy the premises.
