Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas
i had a guest in my home for about 4 months. I have asked her to move out of my home due to my pending marriage. She has avoided in coming to the house to gather her belongs which is clothes, shoes, tv and a computer. I do not know where she is currently, I do have a work address for her. I am going to send a letter to her place of employment regarding her items. How long do I have to keep them legally for her, before I can discard her items?

You need to send a certified letter to her at her work (and by regular mail). Give her a deadline (eg. 10 days from receipt of the letter) to pick up her items. Tell her that if she fails to pick up, then items will be donated to charity.
