[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 705440, member: 18958"] Eugenia. Welcome. There are multiple crimes involved by him. He may "know his rights" but you have rights too. He is depending upon you to be cowed and you cannot be. You could get into trouble by shielding him. The fact you have a minor child at risk could come back and bite you. Because you are the one who is responsible to protect that child. Each of these acts are crimes. Has each crime been reported to the police with police reports filed? Have the thefts been reported to your insurance company? If your insurance company is involved, they will be aggressive. There could be risks that this entails that need to be evaluated, but the current situation presents imminent risks, too. CPS has the right to remove a child who is subjected to abuse, when the responsible adult has not taken proactive steps. This is what you are dealing with. Few of us here know the law in each state. However, how could it ever be illegal to protect yourself, your property, your child? If you are frightened of any legal action he might take, consult an attorney. I doubt highly he has any legal leg to stand on, but I do not know the specifics and I am not an attorney. You might want to research the landlord tenant laws in your state. I just bought a book (I bought it used for a few dollars) that addresses the laws specific to my own state. The publisher is NOLO Press. They have books specific to many states and books that address tenant-landlord law generally making reference to specific states' law and how they differ. NOLO press has its own website where you can research the books. Two websites that sell used books very cheaply are abebooks.com and half.ebay.com. I think with delivery I paid less that $7.00. I think if it were me I would not let him back into the house. I would buy the book, but act first, before it arrives. I would take the stand that my juvenile child is at risk (is this who he stole the $100 from?). Remember you are at risk from him coming and going, especially if CPS becomes involved. Good luck. I hope you keep posting and let us know how things transpire. Posting does help. Take care. [/QUOTE]
