How do I evict a girlfriend who has never paid rent or is on the deed in Tennessee
I have a girlfriend that refuses to leave my house. Does she rise to the level of a tenant that must be evicted through the courts? She has lived in the house for an extended period, but has never paid a dime for anything. Two children from a prior relationship and a son we have together also live in the home. I am happy to keep the kids, I just want her worthless, crazy self out of my house (and life).

"That right may only be stripped pursuant to the statutory parental termination procedures - - it may not be forfeited in a balancing test or to another man who may appear to be a more ideal /parent/." /In Re: T.K.Y. 205 S.W.3d 343, 352 SC of Tn/ The applicable legal standards with regard to a custody dispute between a natural parent and a non-parent differ markedly from the applicable standards with regard to a custody dispute between two natural parents. Ray v. Ray, 83 S.W.3d 726, 731 (Tenn. Ct. App. 2001). “[I]n a contest between a parent and a non-parent, a Parent cannot be deprived of the custody of a child unless there has been a finding, after notice required by due process, of substantial harm to the child.” In re Askew,993 S.W.2d 1, 4/In Re Adoption of W.J.P./ Do not forget that the social policy and court decisions define that absent compelling circumstances, siblings should not be separated. |
