Can the enforcement officer levy execution on my writ on a Sunday?
Generally speaking the answer to this is no. And levying on Good Friday or Christmas Day is a “no no” as well!
What if Sunday is the only day when the debtor will be there?
If it is necessary to levy on either a Sunday or Christmas Day or Good Friday then it is possible for you, or the enforcement officer, to make an application to the court seeking permission to be able to levy on these particular days. The application should outline the reasons why permission is needed, giving evidence where appropriate.
For Claimants seeking to enforce a Writ of Possession which may involve continuing the execution on a Sunday then an application for permission to levy on a Sunday should be made ideally at the time the order for possession is sought and brought to the notice of the enforcement officer as part of the overall instructions in executing the Writ of Possession.
