Q: I own a Florida mobile home along with a roommate. The title is joined by, "and." Previously, the title was joined by, "
or." I took his name off the title. Then, he and I got a new title joined by, "and."
All transactions were perfectly legal.
He is threatening to sue me because he claims I did something illegal (what?; I do not know), and he is claiming that, since his mother bought the mobile home originally (I have paid 100% of the lot rent for five years we have lived here), a court will order me to let him buy my half interest, and he the court will evict me. However, I do not have a contract with my roommate. My roommate and I both have the park lease.
Do my roommate's claims and threats have any probable amount of validity, as far as you can tell?
Thank you.
A: There's no way to tell in an online forum. You would need to take a copy of the title, the lease and any other documents you have evidencing an agreement or payments you made to a lawyer to review.
