Re: personal property left in garage

Civil Code section 1988 sets forth the manner in which property can be sold, following the sending of a statutory notice located in section 1984. After the notice is sent allowing for at least 15 days for the person to pick up the property, if it's worth under $300, the law allows a person to keep the property or dispose of it. Otherwise, more formal procedures need to be utilized.
