Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Minnesota

Upon my Aunt's death, her house was left to all four of her adult children; for tax purposes, it was put into 1 person's name. That person moved out of the house. That person has now moved back into the house with spouse (Dec 2013) and it was verbally agreed upon that they could refinance said house (with spouse) and the other sibling (2 others had also moved out) in the house would move out next year. It is now next year and the one sibling who has lived in the house the longest is being told to leave by a certain date (Mar 1). There has never been anything in writing between the siblings. The sibling who has been there the longest is trying to buy their own home but the process is taking longer than expected. Can they be "evicted." What is their recourse? Or is this a civil issue?

The person facing this issue should confer with an attorney who can provide legal counsel and a legal opinion. It does appear that the matter is civil in nature.
