Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

If plaintiff was not "prepared" and has to re-file to auction our house, does that mean that we don't have to worry about getting out right away? We are in Florida. We were served foreclosure papers, but I called the courthouse and they said house did not sell due to plaintiff not doing something properly and that they would have to re-do whatever paperwork was necessary and set the house up for auction again at a later date. The papers advised us that "IF" the house sold, that we would have 10 days to check on the sale amount, etc, and after that the sheriff could show up at our door the next day and give us as little as 24 hrs notice to vacate...where do we stand now that nothing took place today with the auction of the house?

You need to have a real estate attorney review your documents. Banks are making lots of errors in their foreclosure procedures, and only an attorney can tell you for sure where you stand.
