The first step in eviction of course doesn't require a court order. In the second step you would be applying for a court order. And you can, in any case, always ask them to leave. There is no law against that. If they do leave, problem solved. The question would be whether the "lodger" qualifies as a tenant under NY law, thus requiring the second step. If no, you would be entitled to "self-help eviction", by locking them out, cutting off the power, etc. But be careful, because if you are wrong, and the wrongful ouster provisions of the landlord-tenant law in your jurisdiction apply, you could be sued and have a judgment entered against you. If the legal aid attorney advised you that you don't need to go to court, I would be comfortable with that. But be sure you get the opinion in writing. | ||||
