California. I am trustee of my mom's estate. Her trust states that her boyfriend can stay in her house, as long as he is alive and if he makes the payments and maintains the house "in keeping with the neighborhood." My mom's lawyer says he's only a beneficiary (not a life estate holder), and the house is now owned by the trust. Problem is, the boyfriend is an obsessive/compulsive shopper and every room in the house is filled with the things he's bought, plus garbage, trash, unwashed dishes and clothes, - to the ceilings. There are pathways through the rooms, but the garage is unusable. It is an obvious health and fire hazard, but looks pretty good on the outside. The fire dept. says they do not interfere with a persons personal belongings. What can I do? Must I take him to court to get this solved?
