Cal. Civ. Code § 441.641
If the court appoints a receiver to abate a nuisance pursuant to sections 441.500 to 441.643, and the holder of title to the property or any other party in interest does not take action to regain possession of the property within two years of the appointment of the receiver, the court may, for good cause shown, issue a judicial deed transferring title to the property to the receiver, or to any not-for-profit corporation organized pursuant to law.

Plain English

Under Mo. Rev. Stat. § 441.641, when a Missouri court appoints a receiver to address a nuisance on a property, the title holder or any other interested party has a two-year window to take action to reclaim the property. If no such action is taken within that period, the court has the authority — upon a showing of good cause — to issue a judicial deed that transfers ownership of the property to the receiver or to a qualifying not-for-profit corporation. This provision creates a legal pathway for nuisance properties to change hands through the courts when existing owners remain inactive.

For Property Managers

Property owners subject to a court-appointed receivership under Mo. Rev. Stat. § 441.641 should be aware that inaction carries significant consequences, including the potential permanent loss of title. Compliant and engaged property owners generally monitor any receivership proceedings closely, respond to court notices, and take documented steps within the two-year period to demonstrate active efforts to regain possession and address the underlying nuisance. Maintaining communication with the court and relevant parties throughout the receivership process is a hallmark of an owner working to preserve their property rights under this statute.

General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.

For Tenants

Mo. Rev. Stat. § 441.641 is primarily directed at property ownership and court proceedings rather than tenant rights, but tenants living in a property under receivership may be affected by a change in title if the two-year period lapses without owner action. Tenants in such properties may want to stay informed about the status of any receivership proceedings, as a transfer of title to a receiver or a not-for-profit corporation could affect their tenancy and the management of the property. Consulting a tenant-rights organization or legal aid service can help tenants understand how a judicial deed transfer under this provision might affect their housing situation.
