Q: How to remove tenants who have been previously evicted
Previous tenants have been evicted approximately 2 years ago by landlord. Without landlords permission tenants moved back into home with current tenants in June 2019. What rights does the landlord have and what steps need to be taken to remove unwanted guest/tenants in home who cause a disturbance and have already been evicted ?
A: Unfortunately, I think you'll have to evict the former tenants again unless the current tenants cure the default by having the former tenants at the property. If the current tenants cannot or will not sure the defect, then you'll likely have to evict them too (or the cycle will just continue). I'm sure anyone who responds would be happy to help if you decide to retain an attorney. Good luck.
A: Landlord must report this violation to the police department as a trespass by the previously evicted tenants.
