Eviction Grounds

[Poison Ivy]

HK,

Is it possible for a landlord to evict someone who just moved into a building for a domestic disturbance? Especially since the guy doesn't live in the building, just the girl? Also, is it legal for the landlord to demand the tenant get a restraining order against the guy?

I think you can be evicted for a domestic disturbance. However, I don't think she can force you to get a restraining order, especially since you don't want the order. She can get it herself though.

IT'S TIME TO PLAY THE GAME-AHHH!

IVY - I never practiced landlord tennant law, so tell your friend to speak to an attorney specializing in the field.

Here is some general information that your friend might want to inquire about.

1. There is a difference between public housing (such as HUD and federally subsidized housing) and private lease agreements.

2. Public housing statutes provide in pertinent part some variation of language such as that "any criminal activity that threatens the health, safety, or right to peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other tenants or any drug-related criminal activity on or off such premises, engaged in by a public housing tenant, any member of the tenant's household, or any guest or other person under the tenant's control, shall be cause of the termination of tenancy."

3. Depending on the nature of the dispute, one party or the other (husband/wife or boyfriend/girlfriend) might want the other to move out. The lease protects the signator. Thus if only one party signed it, they are in much better shape than the party who did not.

4. To the best of my knowledge, no one can force another to get an order of protection.

Again, have your friend speak to a specialist in the field.
