What to do if my roommate seized my bank-owned TV the day that I was moving because he claimed that I owe him money?

I know that in the law, creditors need to get writ from the court of the law in order to go to someone’s house to seize borrow’s property(s) who defaulted in the payments. Is this case still the same in order to seaze my property that I am still paying on, he has to go to court first to get a permission?
