    Basically you NEVER know (or can guarantee) what the "other side" is going to say/do/argue. You won't know until you file eviction papers and go to Court. Otherwise, I agree with all the advice given - if anyone cares.

    If you want this person out you have to begin eviction proceedings.

    I finally have a court date tomorrow, June 17th
    To go before a judge, hopefully to formally evict the loafer!! My lawyer stated that this guy said that he was giving us his EBT card to use to buy food. It was only $90.00 a MONTH!
    We haven't asked for it anymore.Can he use that excuse for staying? He isn't working anymore and not giving a penny towards any of our necessary bills, like electric, water, etc.

    No, even if you were using his card, that doesn't cover everything. Also, since he's a month to moth you have the right to terminate his tenancy. With proper notice.

    He's Gone !
    My unwanted tenant is gone! My husband & I went to court the 17th, as did our " tenant", and he represented himself. Our lawyer explained the facts as told by myself, and
    Our " tenant" came prepared with some accusations regarding me lying about our agreement and also about a certain code violation. Also, he requested an additional 90
    Days to find a place to live.( he had over 6 months to find one! ).The judge said no, and promptly said he had 24 hours to vacate the premises.He issued a finial judgement for eviction. Within 2 hours, after contacting his parol officer, he had packed all his belongings
    And left! The eviction process does take quite a while, and it's also stressful to family
    And friends, but the results were worth the wait! :) :) :)
