A: What will happen if your grandson does not leave is that an eviction filing will ensue against all persons named on the lease and any others in possession. Therefore, a final judgment of eviction and/or count for damages will be entered against yourself and any one else on the lease as if you all had lived in the apartment along with your grandson. Hopefully this answers your question and good luck.
