Michigan HB4846 provides an alternate procedure for evicting squatters from residential properties.
Michigan HB4846 amends the eviction process for squatters by allowing property owners or their agents to submit a verified complaint to the sheriff for immediate removal. The sheriff must serve a notice to vacate and put the owner in possession. The property owner can request the sheriff to stand by for peace while they change locks and remove personal property. The sheriff is entitled to the same fee for service as for an eviction order. The property owner or agent is not liable for loss or damage to personal property unless the removal was wrongful.
