It seems like your landlord has shown leniency by allowing you more time to move your belongings. However, remember that this is at their discretion and they can enforce the writ of possession at any time.
So with him allowing us to stay after the * hours was up its ok
Yes, it's okay as long as your landlord permits. However, he can enforce the writ of possession anytime. Always communicate to avoid misunderstandings.
Ok well the next morning he shows up to have us removed from property and EVERYTHING was taken from us and left us homeless
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. In Texas, once a writ of possession is executed, belongings left in the property can be removed. For further assistance:
