You can sue to have him evicted. Non-payment of rent is grounds for you to pursue an "unlawful detainer" suit. That's a fancy way of saying they're there without having paid rent when it was due. You have to give them notice to quit possession of the property. It's a... View More

While this sucks, a lot, it sounds like you are still on the hook for rent until he finds a new tenant.

Once you sign a contract or agreement, you're bound by its terms. If I were you, I'd either try and find another roommate or reason with the landlord to take a lesser amount.

Until his paternity is established, he doesn't have any right to see the baby. If he wants to have rights, he has to go through the legal process of filing a paternity action. It is not legally too late for him to do so because it sounds like he has made some very minor efforts to be in the... View More

If its a debt based on written contract, the statute of limitations is three years from the date of breach. I'd have to know more about the circumstances to know for certain when the statute runs.

If he is unable to sign checks, he may be unable to grant you a power of attorney. It depends on how bad his situation is. If you're in an emergency situation and he can't sign anymore, you may need to get an emergency/temporary guardianship to be able to take care of his affairs.

Both. If there's no will and the "decedent" (the person who passed) had a wife and adult kids, a portion goes to the wife and another portion goes to the kids. You have to file a petition to probate his estate to get the process started, though. If I were you, I'd hire an... View More

The rent is due whenever his lease agreement with the RV park says its due. Doesn't matter why it's late. I would try and reason with the RV park. Obviously your dad is going to get a check every month if he's receiving Social Security disability, so there's no danger of him... View More

You need to file a probate action to be able to distribute his property according to the will. Being named executor in the will means nothing until a court admits the will to probate and appoints you as executor. Then you can file something to sell the house and put the proceeds into a trust for... View More

You and your husband both have a constitutional right to access to the children until a court orders otherwise. If you think your husband is about to leave the state with one of your kids and never come back, you probably need to get something filed to prohibit him from doing that. I would... View More

The best way it so hire an attorney and let them guide you through the process. It sounds like he's definitely the father, so he'll likely be awarded some sort of visitation, but he'll likely be required to pay child support to the child's current custodian. Is that you or your mother?

It's unclear whether you actually ended up renewing your lease or not. When are they saying you owe rent for?

It sounds like you're trying to move out and not owe rent, but they're saying you signed a lease and owe it. Is that right? My guess is they would likely be able to... View More

It's usually part of every residential lease agreement that the landlord has some sort of right of entry for inspection/emergency maintenance/etc.

It also seems like the initial changing the locks would likely be a breach of the lease by the tenant. It really all depends on what the... View More

Unfortunately, once you've left the property, most of your personal belongings are deemed abandoned if you don't get them out quick enough. I would communicate with your former landlord to see if he'll let you in to get your things.

Definitely not. If this really happened, you need a lawyer right away.

Yes. A landlord must give you written notice before starting the legal eviction process. The type of notice and length of time depend on the reason for the eviction.
