1    days that the plaintiff landlord has to evict after a
2    judgment in court. On the date stated in this notice, the
3    plaintiff your landlord will be asking the court to allow
4    the sheriff to evict you based on that judgment. You must
5    attend the court hearing if you want the court to stop the
6    plaintiff landlord from having you evicted. To prevent the
7    eviction, you must be able to prove that (1) the plaintiff

9    instance, to pay up back rent or to comply with the lease)
10    and you have lived up to the agreement; or (2) the reason
11    the plaintiff landlord brought the original eviction case
12    has been resolved or forgiven, and the eviction the
13    plaintiff landlord now wants the court to grant is based on
14    a new or different reason; or (3) that you have another
15    legal or equitable reason why the court should not grant
16    the plaintiff's landlord's request for your eviction."
17    The court shall grant the motion for the extension of the
18judgment of possession unless the defendant establishes that
19the tenancy has been reinstated, that the breach upon which the
20judgment was issued has been cured or waived, that the
21plaintiff and defendant entered into a post-judgment agreement
22whose terms the defendant has performed, or that other legal or
23equitable grounds exist that bar enforcement of the judgment.
24This Section does not apply to any action based upon a breach
25of a contract entered into on or after July 1, 1962, for the
26purchase of premises in which the court has entered a stay
