Definition: A court-issued command directing the sheriff to restore possession of premises to the party entitled to it after the required judicial process.
Example
After a Florida residential landlord obtains a judgment for possession, the clerk issues the writ for the sheriff to execute under section 83.62.
Keep the distinction clear
A demand letter or three-day notice is not a writ. The statutory 24-hour posted notice for execution of a residential writ follows different counting rules from a three-day rent notice.
