A: If YOU ARE A TENANT, SHE HAS TO GIVE YOU AT THE BAREST MINIMUM 30 DAYS TO MOVE OUT. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE JUST A BOYFRIEND WHO DOES NOT CONTRIBUTE ANY MONEY TOWARDS RENT AND ARE LIVING FOR FREE, THIS BECOMES MORE DIFFICULT. SHE COULD CALL THE COPS ON YOU AND ACCUSE YOU OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND OR AWFUL THINGS AND YOU COULD BE REMOVED PHYSICALLY OR ARRESTED BY THE COPS, WHO COULD CONCEIVABLY ISSUE A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER. I DO NOT KNOW ANY SPECIFIC FACTS REGARDING YOUR SITUATION BUT THIS IS SOMETHING I HAVE SEEN IN DIVORCE CASES AND IT IS VERY COSTLY AND DIFFICULT CASE TO DEFEND. YOU BE THE JUDGE OF YOUR SITUATION AND DETERMINED IF YOUR GF IS THE TYPE OF PERSON WHO COULD CALL THE COPS ON YOU. IF THAT TIS THE CASE, THEN YOU SHOULD MOVE ASAP AND AVOID A SAD AND REGRETFUL EPISODE AFTERWARDS. BEST OF LUCK!!!
