Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New York

Where do my belonging go when am evited?

The questions that i would like to ask are as follows. I was evited from a Manhattan building, I owed rent and I pay some of it and the next time I was going to court I was supposed to pay the rest. The day I went to court to pay the money I didn't have it so the Judge made an order for the Sheriff to close my apartment. When I got to my apartment the marshalls had closed the apartment already. My question is what happens to my personal belongings and how long will they hold them for me? I never got none of my stuff. I had alot of things that can never be replaced like (photos, documents, etc.) So if you could please help me you would be saving a broken heart. Thank You.

Contact the landlord, arrange for a time to remove your stuff. I would expect the landlord would be as anxious to have your stuff out of the apartment as you are.

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can call my office to schedule an appointment for a consultation or in the alternative, I can be reached for on-phone low-cost legal consultation at 1-800-275-5336 x0233699.
