Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

I've got the most pain in the butt daughter you could ever imagine.

Back in January she was evicted from me and my wife's second home. I had to go through the eviction process for my own daughter. Luckily my wife was out of the country on the day of the hearing. If she wasn't our daughter would have still been held up in that home.

Anyways to my question - from what I sense in a recent chit chat between my brother and my wife, it seems like my daughter is interested in going back to that home and guess what - mom - yes she supports her once again. My daughter was already ordered to leave that home before can she go back again?

When that house was cleared I had a good friend change the locks and I made sure that I only had the only copy since I can't trust my wife these days when it comes to my daughter. She's got too much hear for her. But the bottom line is we need to cut her loose, she's 24 years old now.

So basically two questions:

1) Considering the past judgement back in January of this year (2012) that got her to leave the house, if my wife wants her back in there can our daughter still return and stay in that house?

2) Although the locks of that home is now changed, can my wife get a locksmith to open the door forcibly?

And yes the wife owns half of the home. 50/50.

Thanks

Dan
