Legal Question in Family Law in California

My x-wife lives in our old house with my son where I pay 80% of the mortgage. In our divorce agreement she forfeited alimony, but we retain 50/50 ownership of the house and have agreed to sell it in 2 years and split the difference. I just found out that her new boyfriend is moving in. Can I legally charge him rent? I don't want to pay for him to live in my house. Thank you for your help.

Not based on these facts alone, but you may have language elsewhere in your judgment that may give you some course of action. I recommend a consult with an attorney to review the judgment (divorce agreement).
