What is the name of your state? California
Here's the issue. My mother is 69 and lived alone up until my brother and a friend moved in. My brother is to pay all utilities, phone, etc as his rent. His friend does not work and my mother felt sorry for him and said he can stay too. I should my head at that too when I found out, but by that time he was all moved in.
My brother and his friend has lived there exactly 30 days. During their stay, my brother's friend has become aggressive and shows volent tendancies. My brother says he did not realize his friend has this issue. This guy has been trying to take over my mom's home, he has threatened my brother, harrased my mother. She's asked him to leave, by brother has asked him to leave and he refuses. Said he had rights. I went there with my husband and told him to get the *** out of the house. My brother is apparently afraid of him at this point. The guy refused to leave and said he wasn't leaving only by force. I called the police, they came out and said that since he's moved all his stuff in, we had to give him a 3-day notice to Quit, even after receiving that he can seek a 30-day extension. The police officer told my mom, that if she offered him money to leave, that maybe he would go quietly. He stated that he's seen this tactic usually work. My mother and brother want him out, so my mother (in front of of the officier) handed him a 3-day notice (I went onto the computer and typed it up for her during the time the officier was taking the report). She then told the guy that she'd give him $1000 to take his stuff and get out. He said no, he wants his 30 day extension. The officer said he had that right and we just had to wait it out. Police officer left and the harrassment promptly started. We called him back and he said we could not proof harrasment. We need to tape him, video take him, etc....My mother is scared, because my brother works nights and I live 2 hours away. The issue happened today. Tonight, the guy tells my brother that for $2000 he'll leave and never look back.
I talked it over with my mom and brother and they both just want him to away, and not to wait the 30 days, because he's been verbally abuseive, calling my mom B----, etc, constantly, trying to get my brother or mother to hit him so he can call the cops on them.
My question is this: We want to write a up something that he would have to sign before giving him the money. Something like: I agree to not tresspass, harrass, molest any persons or property and "said address" I agree to stay away, blah, blah blah... Does anybody have any idea on what else we should include to protect ourselves? Should we call the police and have their witness the exchange? Will the come for something like that?
Any inputs on what to place in the document that we are going to draft up would be greatly appreciated, I don't want to forget to mention anything that should be in the note.
Thank you for any positive inputs to our plight.
