Q: Hi, my father wants to kick me out of his house in KY, does he need eviction notice or can he just have me removed?
Elizabethtown KY
A:
Hard to say, with only the information in your question. But it sounds like he has been letting you live there and that you have no type of legal "ownership" interest in the property such as a leasehold interest or a term of years or what-have-you. If that is the case, if he asks you to leave and you refuse, you would be a trespasser. Generally, without an enforceable right in the property, you wouldn't be entitled to any kind of notice before being forcibly removed. There may be other circumstances, however, that might give you some rights in the situation but that might not rise to the level of an interest in the real estate. Contact an experienced real estate lawyer in your area to discuss your specific situation to see if you may have any available remedies. Good luck.
