There is no writ of eviction. If you did not appear and were in default in the eviction proceeding the landlord gets a writ of restitution which they then give to the sheriff to remove you. If a writ has been issued the only way to get that voided is by court order.

If a writ has been issued, you need to hire an attorney to see if you have a chance of getting the order changed. This will be extremely difficult. Good luck.
