You are going to have to evict him. If you need help, you can email me at [email protected]. I can point you in the right direction.
Re: ex-boyfriend
You would need to proceed with an eviction. Housing Court is not a do it yourself process, necessarilly. there are a lot of fine points to the law that pose traps for the unwary.
I would be happy to work with you if you feel you need assistance.
I should point out that if for some reason, your ex has become abusive, you can always apply for a domestic restraining order and force him out that way. (you dont need to have been married for that law to protect you) He would have ahd to hurt you or in some way caused you to fear for your safety.
That would be the only other way out of your situation, assuming he doesnt leave on his own.
You cant just change the locks...
