If, after the passage of thirty days from the date of any judgment in favor of the landlord, or other person entitled to the rent for a mobile home lot,
the judgment is not satisfied, then the landlord, or other person entitled to the rent for a mobile home lot, may take possession of the mobile home without any liability to the owner of the mobile home.

NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to
provide a procedure for evictions of mobile home owners from mobile home lots and to set time limits within which actions may be brought. It establishes the right of landlord to possession of mobile home after judgment, without any liability to the owner of the mobile home.
