Q: Can person "sell" their own property to their girlfriend/boyfriend in a domestic situation?
Man owns a mobile home. His mother and girlfriend live in the same home. His girlfriend pays rent and other bills. His mother does not. His mother attacks his girlfriend and he gets in the middle to prevent more physical harm to the girlfriend. Mother calls cops. Cops arrest man. Can man sell his mobile home to his girlfriend in order to have his mother removed? No contact order is automatic in this case. Man can not even enter his own home that he legally owns.
A: It is not necessary to sell your mobile home in order to evict your mother. There is an eviction process which a lawyer can help you with. The lawyer is allowed contact with the protected party and can therefore effectuate the eviction.
