What happens to personal property of an evicted tenant in New Jersey?
A tenant is "evicted" when the court issues a judgment for possession to the landlord. That judgment gives the tenant a date by which the move has to be made. If the tenant holds over in possession of the apartment despite the judgment of possession, the landlord gets a "warrant for removal", which is sent to a court constable. If the tenant has not vacated the premises, the warrant for removal permits the court officer to physically remove the tenant's belongings out of the apartment and leave them at the curb. It is extremely rare that such a thing ever happens though, because in virtually every eviction matter, the tenant moves out before the physical eviction has to take place.

What is a stay of eviction?
A stay of eviction is a temporary hold on the eviction process that a court sometimes issues for some extraordinary reason. If a tenant is evicted, but there would be a substantial hardship on the tenant or the family, the tenant may apply for a stay of eviction. If there is a genuine hardship, the court will order a temporary halt in the eviction process but only until the hardship or until a reasonable time for the tenant to take care of the hardship passes. In many cases, if a tenant is evicted in mid-month, he or she will not be able to find new quarters until the first of the month after the month that immediately follows the eviction. Hardly any court will put a family and its belongings on the street at least for one month. This gives the evicted tenant some time to find a new home.
How do i go about finding out about an eviction i don't know?
It is not clear what is being asked. Eviction notices are usually delivered by mail or in person. Evictions are required to be filed with the courts but they are filed by the names of the landlord and tenant, and if you didn't know you were about to be evicted then there's no way you could possibly know about it in advance. If you are asking about an eviction of someone else, go to the court and ask about eviction notices under that person's name.
