    You have the legal right to be evicted. Not simply locked out. They have to follow the legal process. And eviction IS a legal process.

    Beyond them having you served... and you leaving by the end of that time... or them going to court and winning the case (which they will) and the Sherrif dumping your stuff on the street if you won't. Other than that... you have no rights to stay beyond that.

    You have no legal rights to remain in someone else's home who does own or rent it... if YOU don't. They can't simply change the locks on you one day.

    You don't want kicked out?. rent your own place.. in your own name... and make the payments on time. Sorry, but that's life. Find a friend.. a shelter or a bridge until you can afford your own place.

    What's on your ID means nothing. He who has the deed or the lease with their name on it is what matters as they have the legal standing to initiate that process.

    That's the consensus of opinion here. But if they do, please let me know when and if you find an attorney willing to take the case. :rolleyes:

    Valid proof of residence? DMVs don't ask for any.
    Your parents could have legally tossed you out the door on your 18th birthday.
    Sometimes it all depends on what cop shows up at the door after that, and how you act, and how everybody acts, and who's the most polite and calm.
    All your parents need to do is say that you have been threatening them or causing damage or stealing, and you can be forced off the property while they get a restraining order.

    You don't pay rent and live in your parents' home at age 28. You have the right to be evicted - or simply thrown out.

    As has been said whether it's illegal you'll NEVER find an Attorney to pursue the case.

    Of course, you probably can't afford an Attorney so that's a moot point.

    I don't know what all of your rights are but if I were your parent I would go to a lawyer and make sure that when I died you wouldn't see a penny. Grow up and get out you moocher!

    This is a legal forum. It operates in a different manner than the "opinion" threads. You are entitled to your opinion as long as it also contains legal advice.

    I do not see legal advice here.

    Can someone please explain this apparent non sequitur? Just because the DMV says that, at the time the ID was issued, he lived there, does that give him some sort of a vested right to continue living there forever? I am at a loss to explain the point of this tidbit.

    When all else fails grab at straws.

    You're correct. Too bad it wasn't the parents who were asking for advice, eh? So sorry.
