To provide expedited procedures for evicting tenants who are manufacturing, selling, or in possession of illegal drugs, and to require (rather than allow) a court to immediately issue the writ of restitution (which instructs the sheriff to perform the eviction). Ordinarily the writ is issued ten days after the eviction judgment.
