It varies depending on the reason for the eviction, how busy the court is, and whether the tenant mounts a defense.  Generally, an eviction for nonpayment of rent where the tenant does not file a defense to the case, takes about three weeks until judgment is entered.  If a writ of possession must be issued and served to make the tenant move, then about another week is added to the time.
