This doesn't seem like a difficult problem to solve. While she is at work one day, just move all her stuff out of the dorm and change the locks.

Then, sue her for unpaid room charges. I think $94K is little excessive for 24 months though.

It can be tough even in pro-LL states.

Banks were forced to wait YEARS while "owners" stayed in their homes without paying on mortgages after 2008. I have no doubt that the legal costs of defending lender liability cases from 2008 to 2015 or so were in the hundreds of millions.

Seems simple to me.

She simply comes home from work one day to see her stuff outside and the locks changed. Problem solved.

But she's also a victim, remember, calling life in a dorm in her 30s “really lonely." “I feel very isolated,” she said.

I would certainly think so, considering that you don't even go to the school in whose dorm you are squatting.

When I was 17 at LSU there was a 33 year old guy in the dorms with us. Thought it was crazy. But he bought me crown.

But the one-time geography major, who now works at an architecture firm, refuses to leave her 100-square-foot Room E579 at the school’s co-ed dorm.


I don't understand the holdup. A couple of deputies and a tazer can fix this in short order.

This is why 30 year olds shouldn't go to college

You would think, being a university, they would just send people to take the dooroff her room and take everything out to the dumpster.

How have they waited this long to evict? Sounds like incompetence.


There's a thing called changing the locks. Not sure how dumb this school is to not know how to do that with a student refusing to leave without paying residence fees.

Change locks on her door while she is gone?



This is actually illegal until they have permission from a judge to evict.

You can't just change the locks on someone.

They'd be breaking the law since it's been well past 30 days. This leech has rights now according to their law.
quote:

Naturally, they tried to kick the squatter out. Diaz’s daughter called the police and reported the stranger for trespassing. Police removed the man, and the family immediately changed the locks.

The problem was that the man had already established squatter’s rights, so kicking him out constituted illegal eviction. The squatter went to NYC Housing Court, and the judge allowed him back onto the property just a few days later.

Now, Diaz is forced to go through the long legal battle to properly evict him via court order—a process that will make it almost impossible for Diaz to sell the property. Unable to pay her mortgage and facing foreclosure, Diaz is worried that she might have to file for bankruptcy and sell her restaurant. Squatters are every landlord’s worst nightmare, especially in a place like New York City, where adverse possession can be established so quickly.

Does she have a right to electrical power while she squats there?

This is why the mafia is good for society. Someone is refusing to move out? Call up some guys whose last name ends in a vowel and have them send a couple of people over to "pay her a visit".

Problem solved.
