[QUOTE="mrsammler, post: 512444"] We went through this with my nephew years ago. If you really need him out of the house--and it certainly sounds like you do--you need to tell him that you're initiating formal eviction and that he has 30 days to be out of the house, and then go to the magristrate's office in town and swear out warrants for the crimes that he has committed. If he has punched a hole in your wall, that's a crime. If he has threatened you with violence, that's assault (it doesn't have to be physical contact--merely threatening violence is technically assault in most states), and so on. Tell the magistrate everything he's done and he/she will advise as to which are crimes. Then swear out warrants for all of them and then have the police come over and arrest him. He'll raise hell, of course, but he should've thought about that before all of the terrible mistreatment and misbehavior that you've described. He won't be able to make bail, so he'll be locked up for a while (given the multiple offenses), perhaps the entirety of the 30 days of his eviction notice. Then you can put him out of the house via legal eviction and, if you like, merely drop the charges. There's absolutely no reason for you to simply endure his ongoing residence in your home if he is smoking pot in the house, destroying property, threatening violence, and so on. There are laws against what he's doing, and you can exploit them. But you'll need to be tough--this is not an easy path. Then again, neither is just tolerating his mistreatment of you and misbehavior in your home. [/QUOTE]
