Portland, TN asked in Civil Rights for Tennessee

Q: My boyfriend and I have been together for about 7 years. He bought a house 5 years ago and before that he lived with me

In my apt for awhile. So I moved into his house with him 5 years ago. He cheated last year and not knowing anything was wrong he just looked at me one day and said we are done, get the f**** out. and I moved to FL on 6/12/18 and lived with my son. He wanted me to come and dummy me did in 9/2018. I was paying the water, electric, internet and buying the groceries. He paid the mortgage and cable. That was our verbal agreement. He was late on it for 3 months and then again 4 months where the house actually went into foreclosure. He got 2 emergency funnds out of his 401k. I couldn't pay for everything. I guess none of that matters. So now in 1 day again he told me we are done. Get the f*** out of my house. He printed off some eviction notice and now I have 30 days. I don't have the money saved to get out in 30 days. He's cheating again. Would the judge give me an extra 30 days to get out? Do I have a leg to stand on? It just says N/A for the reason. I'm still paying bills here.

A: He has to file a Detainer Warrant, serve you or post it, get a Judgment for Possession, then if you are not out in 10 days, get a Writ of Possession issued and executed. Most of your factual situation is irrelevant to a Court.
