If your the lender has started the repossession process in the local County Court,
they will ask the judge for a Possession Order (or Repossession Order) - the right to take your property, evict you and anyone
living there, and to sell the property to recover the mortgage and all costs involved in the repossession process.
A judge will usually grant a 28 day Possession Order. This means that you must pay your arrears or leave the property within 28 days
from the date of the County Court Judgement.
Sometimes a 28 day Possession Order can be suspended for up to 56 days pending a further Court Possession Hearing
