expense free of any claim of the landlord.

(d) The order shall provide that the claimant shall remove [his] THE
CLAIMANT'S goods at [his] THE CLAIMANT'S expense from the leased premises within
a time to be fixed by the court. If the claimant fails to remove [his] THE CLAIMANT'S
goods within the fixed time, then the goods claimed by [him] THE CLAIMANT no
longer shall be excluded from distress and shall be subject to the landlord's claim for
distress as though no petition for exclusion had been filed.

been removed, it may issue an order to follow goods under distress within six months
after filing of an action of distress. The order shall authorize levy on the removed
goods at any place the goods can be found within the jurisdiction of the court.

(b) If the goods are removed outside the court's jurisdiction, the plaintiff may
file with the court in the jurisdiction where the goods are located, a certified copy of
the original action of distress, together with a verified petition setting forth (i) the fact
of the original petition for distress, (ii) the premises to which the tenant has removed
the goods, and (iii) the name and address of the occupant of the premises. If the

tenant, an order shall be served by first-class mail or by an officer on the other
person giving [him] THE OCCUPANT seven days from the date of service of the order
to protest seizure of the goods. If not protested, the order becomes final and
authorizes any officer to seize and remove the goods.
