My recollection is that is VZ's Smith decision that he oft cites in
court.

There are conflcting cases on the subject. Several years ago, VZ wrote
an opinion saying no stay to protect "mere possession". Other judges
disagreed and my recollection is that there was a BAP opinion to the
contrary. Not all judges believe in the BAP. Now this was all several
years ago, so the law has certainly developed, but finding VZ's decision
should be a good starting point.

Anyone...
I just received a call this Thur PM from a client who has been served an
eviction notice [for Monday the 10th] by the Sheriff.
My recollection is that the automatic stay does not "stay" the eviction
process because after the Unlawful Detainer has gone to judgment agains
the Debtor he no longer has the right to stay at the residence.
Had the Debtor filed a chapter 7 prior to the judgment in the UD
proceeding the automatic stay would have protected the Debtor
[temporarily at least] and the Landlord would have to obtain relief from
the stay to proceed with the UD against the Debtor.
What say you?.....is a Sheriff's post UD trial eviction notice "stayed"
by the filing of a chapter 7
