A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. At this point, you could continue to await a response or you could reach out to attorneys. You can use the tab above (Find-a-Lawyer), or search for attorneys independently on your own. Good luck

When you saying eviction, what do you mean?
In Georgia, if the landlord filed a dispossesory action in court, but the sheriffs/marshals haven't come out to supervise the ejectment, the landlord cannot turn off the power, water, or gas. In fact, that is considered a wrongful eviction.... Read more »
If the landlord wants its property back for no reason, in Georgia, that can happen for the following reasons:
(1) the lease has ended and proper notice has been given of the termination.
(2) an early termination provision is in the lease, and it is exercised with the proper notice.... Read more »
And his name is on the deed to hers as well. His cousin moved in with her about a year ago and was only suppose to stat a few months but here we are a year later. My question is, is my husband allowed to kick him out because he won't be paying for power and such and we don't want the... Read more »
No, he can not just kick the cousin out, unfortunately. He will need to go through the proper legal channels to have the cousin evicted.
I rent my home and have 4 adult children living with me and my middle son is 25 and becoming increasingly hard to deal with. Verbally aggressive and very disrespectful. I wanted to know what I can do to have him leave my home? /move out! I don’t want things to escalate to violence as I’m doing... Read more »
Considering your son is an adult and you no longer want him living in the home you can ask him to leave. If he refuses, you can take a legal route to ensure that he moves out. If he refuses to leave, consult with an attorney who can help you with your options to move forward.
As long as you do not pay with cash you should have a record of your payment.
He had a musical instrument in the room. He has now left without paying. The hotel owner has taken it home and will not return it to me until the guest pays his bill. What do I do?
You may sue for replevin -- the return of the property.
You should call the police and see if they will take it up as criminal trespass or the like. You might also sue civilly for trespass. See an attorney
The answer to your question depends on the details surrounding the incident, and without more information, it is difficult to provide you with a definitive answer. For this reason, it is best to contact an attorney who can assist you with the specifics of your circumstances.

The new owner has threatened he is going to come throw out my things in 7 days? Is that allowed?
First, look at your lease. What does your lease say about sales? Some say the owner has the right to give you 30 or 60 day notice to vacate. Others are silent. If the lease is silent on a sale, the buyer takes subject to the lease. Therefore, they must comply with the lease as the new... Read more »

You may want to contact your county government office to see if there is any rent assistance available to help you avoid eviction. Many counties are offering such assistance. -Homer P. Jordan IV, Esq. 404-620-1558

If she was never invited to stay, you should contact the authorities (police) and have her removed for trespassing. If she has been invited to stay, you will need to move to have her evicted.

If I didnt sign early my rent will go up to a month to month basic
Look at your lease.
Leases usually give a required notice of renewal or nonrenewal of 30 or 60 days before it expires.
Normally, within that time frame, a new lease is signed.

Yes you technically can, but it doesn't work. You end up netting if it works out well and you have to defend it in an audit. It always ends up being net taxable when the IRS recalculates the FMV of the rental.

How were you kicked out?
Did the landlord remove your items and change the locks?
What do you mean no reason?
Are you saying the notice to vacate did not explain why there was an early termination?
Because the lease controls,for the most part, I would have to see the lease.
