    No, What you need to do is file a pay or quit notice. If she doesn't bring the rent up to date within the time frame (the # of days for a pay or quit varies by area) then file for an eviction order. You need to check in your local area for the correct eviction procedure.

    By the way, why was this posted in the Parenting forum? When this clearly has nothing to do with Parenting. I've moved it for you.

    I have merged your posts, these are not blogs, we can't tell what your old post was so when you say, "based on what I said" no one would have any idea of what you SAID.

    You can't keep someone things, or just throw them out. You can take them to housing court to evict them for non payment or sue them for unpaid rent if they move.

    But they are a adult and if they want to move they can.
