    My Grandmother is in trouble
    My question is going to be kind of a long one.. I have an uncle who was living off my mother for almost three years until she finally moved to Kentucky.. Mind you, he is like fifty years old, not married, and no children.. Just lazy.. Does not work.. Nothing.. My grandmother felt bad because he had no place to go so she offered to help him out for a while.. Well a while has turned into four years.. She has paid for his food, clothing, and all of his living expenses, including medical bills.. Now she is finally at eighty years old, getting ready to retire on Jan. 1, 2008 and can't afford to support him anymore.. He has done nothing to acquire an income.. She wants my fiancé, my boys, and I to move in with her and take over the expenses of the taxes on the house and upkeep on the house in February or as soon as possible after her retirement.. She had a conversation with my uncle the other day and offered him $3000.00 to move out and get started on his own and he flat out told her he was not leaving without having an income.. He isn't even looking for one.. How can we legally remove him.. She wants him out but she is getting sick over this.. While I was on the phone with her the day after her conversation with him, she got so upset that she passed out on the phone.. Her heart won't be able to take this.. He has already spoke of my death so she won't let me come there while he still resides there.. How can I help her get him out without her being in danger.. He owns guns and he is crazed.. I don't trust him at all.. Please help me..

    Wow you do have quite the situation to deal with. I am no professional in this department
    But will give you my gut advise if I were in your situation. First does your grandmother
    Have anyone that she has elected to handle her personal care or wellbeing possibly
    A guardian of her estate or someone to handle her legal affairs possibly an attorney
    She may have worked with in the past? If so you may want to contact and share the
    Situation with them and get some more advise as to how to proceed. If there are no resources to turn to then the best thing you can do is take your gramma to the police department and have her explain the situation and most likely they will be able
    To remove him from site without her being there this will help her to handle all of the
    Emotion from a external location. As for any threats that he has made this is the only power that he has is by acting out and intimidating everyone around him. Sounds to
    Me she have given him many chances to help himself. As for the offer of 3,000.00
    To move out he has chosen not to help himself up to this point and I would not
    Offer him any money at this point in time. Just as well he did not take it as we
    Know on today's time 3,000.00 does not last long and most likely he would just return
    At a later date expecting another hand out. Your gramma need to put and end to
    This situation enough is enough. Take her to the police department or meet her there
    And proceed with the help they will be able to give. Once removed from site if she
    Is in fear that he may return she can put a restraining order on him and if he returns
    To the property all she has to do is call the police and they will kindly remove him and
    Most likely if he is in violation he will be arrested. Don't be intimidated by him
    Take a stand and put an end to this mess. Please let me know if this advise helped.
    I will wait to hear from you. Good luck.

    Hello f:

    She needs to evict him according to the landlord tenant laws of her state. We have copies right here, at the top of the real estate page.

    I would tell him, if I were her, that if she actually HAS to evict him, she won't give him the $3 grand. Once he understands that she's serious, and that he can be put on the street, he'll move.
