How to kick out a roommate
Hi -
I used a form that I found online to
create a 'Rental Lease Agreement'
for a woman who is renting out a
room in my house. Unfortunately,
she has brought along a slew of
legal troubles and we need to ask
her to leave. Per the agreement, I
can give her 30 days to vacate with
'no cause'. What is the proper way
to go about enforcing this?
Also...she has a lot of stuff and I'm
worried that she won't move it out.
What are my legal rights in this
situation?

The proper way to go about it is by giving her a 60 day notice. As to her stuff, once she is out, you can give her a 15 day notice telling her to remove her stuff or it will be trashed.
