[@madwhitehare3635]

Squatters' rights is an oxymoron.

[@LaakeaM21]

Squatters rights is actually commonly misunderstood. It only applies to an unoccupied and otherwise neglected property. You have to live there for a fairly lengthy amount of time without anyone coming to evict you, ask for rent, claim the property etc. Basically at some point the state considers the property abandoned and let's you have it with some arrangements. It does not apply to "I just stopped paying rent and refused to move out" and indeed if at any time before that golden length of time someone comes to kick you out or claim the property, squatters rights are gone and you will not have claim to the property

[@anndeecosita3586]

@@Lavender-blue80if it’s true that she was refusing to accept their rent then the rent is irrelevant. This wasn’t an either or. They needed to move out period.

[@point-five-oh6249]

Actual single digit IQ take. Squatter's Rights helps tenants that are being screwed over by their landlord. Take a scenario like this for example: You live in the South where it gets well over 100 degrees in the summers. Your housing's AC stops working, and on the lease it says that the landlord is responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of appliances and home amenities, like the AC/Heat units. You call your landlord about the broken equipment, but you never get any kind of follow-up from the property maintenance or any HVAC technician to fix the problem, so you're stuck in 95 degree housing the entire time. You cannot just break the lease, without substantial fines and your credit getting shafted. Squatter's Rights allows the tenant to effectively stay there and refuse to pay the rent until the landlord fulfills their end of the contract. Because failing to pay rent makes you by law a "squatter". Is it really fair at that point for the landlord to neglect their duties, force you into uncomfortable housing arrangements that they were required by law to fulfill (by the terms of their lease contract), then kick you out and sue you for the missed payment(s), breaking your contract, and their legal fees? Squatter's Rights aren't giving bums free reign, meaning it doesn't apply to the defendants here, it helps people to dispute landlord negligence and dispute unfair treatment. You may sit down.

[@billmoran3219]

She gave them a legal notice to quit and they ignored it, that makes them squatters , then they retaliated by calling housing authority and looks like false claims against her. Defendants are professional victims!

[@anndeecosita3586]

She continued to accept rent from the in October and November after the date she told them to be out. can’t have it both ways. Accept rent and call them squatters. Law - A holdover tenant is a renter who remains in a property after the expiration of the lease. If the landlord continues to accept rent payments, the holdover tenant can continue to legally occupy the property, and state laws and court rulings determine the length of the holdover tenant's new rental term.

[@dhs1988]

The property owner definitely has the right to ask any tenant to vacate their property. However whether anyone likes it or not the tenant has the right to refuse and wait for an eviction notice and then a writ of possession to be issued by a judge. Until that writ of possession is given to the sheriff's office any eviction is illegal and in many cities and counties can cost the landlord thousands of dollars in fines. What the tenant does not have the right to do is stop paying rent during the eviction proceedings. In fact if the landlord refuses to take payment the court will do so and hold the funds until the eviction process is settled. The simple fact is that there are many pos landlords like this woman who refuse to follow the law and believe that they can use intimidation tactics to get rid of tenants. Oh and like it or not these people were tenants NOT squatters. There is a huge difference and I'm shocked that Judge Judy who is supposed to be a legal scholar would not differentiate between the two nor did she educate herself on landlord/tenant rights of their county. I guess this is what happens when you stop practicing law and instead practice arbitration if it can even be called that at this point. I'm sure that Judge Judy has a diverse portfolio of investments and more than likely has rental properties. Her bias is clearly showing here. Edit: Also providing written or verbal notice to the tenant that you want them to vacate the property is NOT an eviction notice. An eviction notice is a legal document which is served to the tenant (s) by the court as part of the eviction proceedings. The moral of the story is both landlord and tenant should know their rights what they can and cannot do and everyone should be less of a pos.

[@drneddymakonza5216]

Why don't they understand if the Plaintiff kept accepting new rent, she would have to start the eviction all over again. Doesn't mean they don't owe for rent when they actually lived there. It's just common sense.

So, six months later, after not paying a penny in rent, the brother went to prison (😅) and the nieces are still there. My husband took them to court, and the judge was friends with the nieces' attorney and instead of evicting them, he allowed them to stay for no reason at all. They have not paid rent in almost two years and my husband is still having to pay the taxes on the property. Nice family, huh?
