Re: foreclosure
In PA, it is legal for a mortgage company to postpone a sale at the sale with no additional notice. The burden is on the owner to be present at the sale and be aware of the postponement date. That sounds like what has happened.
Usually, mortgage companies have no interest in forcibly evicting people and they may even give you funds to move. You should talk to them about how much time you need.
Otherwise, you can defend the eviction which may give you time. You should speak to an attorney ASAP so you don�t miss any deadlines.
I trust this answers your question but feel free to call or E-mail with any others.
