Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas

How to evict when no lease

I bought my house before marrying. After divorce the house was mine. However I allowed my ex to stay there until she got back on her feet. It's been 5 years and she still hasn't found a job. We never drew up a lease or any written agreement. I gave her 2 months to find a new place but now she said she needs 2 more. Obviously she won't move unless made to. Don't know if it's relevant but I have custody of the kids and no one pays child support.

Child support issue isn't relevant. Go to the local Justice of the Peace office website and get the procedures for evection, otherwise known as forcible entry and detainer.
