I am sorry to hear about your situation. Your landlord will have to take you to court to evict you.
Odds are a judge will give you time to find a new place. So, technically you can be evicted, but probably not any time soon. You should start looking at assistance programs that may help... View More 
about a 2nd will that was probated without my knowledge or consent is this legal? In nj
answered on Aug 5, 2020
You need to talk to an attorney.
Only one will is supposed to be probated. Every reason for 2 or more Will's I can think of is complicated and needs an attorney.
Cops and have me arrested if I don’t get out. Can he do this?
answered on Aug 2, 2020
Can he call, yes. Are you going to be evicted? Probably not. If you lived there for more than 30 days you pick up rights as a tenant, and your friend is the one that is going to say you have lived there over 30 days.
The landlord would then have to go through eviction court. And most... View More
How long do I legally have to notify them if they are month to month?
answered on Jul 26, 2020
You need to terminate the tenancy of the people that live there now. Even if you do that correctly, they may not want to move out and then you will have to evict them. At this time, evictions are on hold in NJ.
Talk to them first and explain what is going on. If they are able to pay... View More

You are a long way from being homeless at this time. The only way to legally remove you from the property is by eviction. Because of Covid, there is an eviction and foreclosure moratorium.

The issue you may want to think about is that the Executive Order 128 is an Executive order not a law.

New York doesn't allow an employer to deduct pay for losses related to breakage or even cash shortages. Withholding your paycheck is a big no-no.

I am going to offer nonlegal advice for a sec. As a kid who had braces, look into any option other than braces like one of those companies that shift teeth with 3d trays.
Now for the legal part, you get to make the medical choices. If your daughter wants braces, get her something less... View More

Yes. From what you described he sounds like he needs to be evicted through legal means if he chooses to stay.
His son was living with him and wants to stay in the house. His Half sister says it’s ok but when he sells she wants half. How do I set that up? There are no other assets so how do I pay off his debts and end my responsibilities As administrator?

The son could buy the 1/2 of the house the sister owns now. He should easily be able to get a loan for 50% of home. This protects the sister in case he eventually does something that could endanger the property.

It is not a good sign that the Executor is buying property from the estate. The Executor owes a duty as a fiduciary to the estate. You really should speak with an attorney. Do not rely on any public internet forum as a basis to make a legal decision.
