Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Pennsylvania
On May 13 2011, I received an "order for possession" from a constable. It says I have 10 days to get out of my home, here in Pittsburgh, PA, for non payment of rent. But in the blank space for the date by which I must be out, the hand written "5 - - 11" is written with the exact date omitted on purpose, I assume. When must I go?

Well you have the order date and it says 10 days. So the earliest possible date is May 23. The latest possible date the date you got the order plus 10 days.
Fact is you didn't pay the rent so why should you stay any longer than necessary.
