A: You will need to file a Detainer Warrant in General Sessions immediately, requesting "For Possession Only". There is a three year Statute of Limitations on Unlawful Detainers, but it is up to them to raise the issue. After Judgment if they are still there you will have to request a Writ of Possession to be entered and executed. It sounds like they will not like Deputies coming to serve process on them. Be careful though as they might try to charge you with domestic violence or some other easily fabricated crime. You should be able to do this yourself.
