Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Utah
Hello, let me explain my situation here. My husband and I moved from New Jersey to Utah this past month. We made a verbal agreement with my mother in law that she and her daughter (Female Age 21) would come live with us at the apartment and split everything 50/50. The move happened on the First of February 2010.Only my sister in law came with us since my mother in law would come a After about 3-4 days.My sister in law was told on the day of the move in that she would only be allowed to stay there for a 14 day period without being added to the lease. so she would have some time to decide if this is the right move for her. About 3-4 days after the move in my sister in law decided she no longer wanted to stay and then my husbands mother said some things over the phone that we all decided it would be best for neither of them to live with us. Since we notified both my mother in law and my sister in law that she could not have her things here past the 14th, i feel that it is my right to have my mother in laws belongings thrown out in the garbage. It has been 8 days since the 14th of Feb. and my mother in law does not plan on comming to get her things until the first or second week of march. she told me if i throw out her stuff she will sue me. Is that possible? the only two people on the apartment lease is my husband and myself and i do not want any of her things here. As i said i feel she has had ample time, to get her stuff out of my apartment. Would she have any leeway in court to sue me for throwing out her belongings?

Yes, she would. You cannot throw out her belongings.
