Put a lean on renter - partial payment

[Granville L.]

So, I went through the eviction process and the judge put a $3000. lean on one of my tenants.  We had to put a writ of possession on the home (judge signed it) and we are waiting for the sheriff to call. My wife ran into her today.  The tenant said she can pay $900. on Monday.  I am still going to kick her out, but can I also take her $900 because she owes it?

Nope. 

She will think by paying you the eviction will go away. Make her pay the way the court decides otherwise it may mess up the decision. 

Have zero contact with her.
