What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida. This one's a dosey. My mother is in the hospital and has been there for over a month. She has been found Incompetent. I have a Durable Power of Atty. Her boyfriend(?) is living in her home. My problem is he won't move out. The Doctors have told me there is abuse happening and will not release her from the hospital till he is out of her house. She wants him out. He owes my mother about $7000 and does not pay anything he was supposed to pay. He was supposed to pay the utilities. There's no lease between him and my mother. I took my Mother's car from him yesterday, with the Sheriff department involved. This is in Vero, Fl. The Sherrif made a comment that I can kiss the house goodbye cause he's gonna tear it up. The Sheriff also told me not to go into the house unless he says I can. I asked them to go in with me so I can take pictures before he does any damage. The Sheriff said we couldn't go in unless he, the free loader give consent. I need this guy out of my mother's house so I can bring her home. I will be moving in with her to take care of her. What do I do? The laws protect him it looks like. What about my mother's rights when it comes to her own home? Please any advise would be appreciated. I've been told so many different things and don't know where to start to get this guy out of there.
Thank you very much to anyone who has advice.
