    Actually, you both took custody and both might be held liable for their damage.

    yes, she could get into trouble if she burns the stuff.


    counsel her on this; the relief she feels when doing it will not last and it surely is not worth having to pay for the stuff or, at worst, spend a little time in jail for it (as unlikely as it may be, it is still possible)

    So if we have custody, how long do I have to hold them for him. I don't want to tote around his stuff forever.

    To be safe, until a judge advises what to do with them. He did not leave them with you. You and mom took custody of them. Abandonment does not really apply.

    should have left them in the old place. Now that you have them, you are stuck with them. Does he even know where you/his clothes are?

    As I've stated before: We did not leave his stuff behind because he disappeared. We didn't know what happened to him.

    He is an addict, and we thought he might have owed the wrong people money and be seriously hurt or floating with the gators in the bayou. Never once did we think he would have left us to move in with his crackhead girlfriend.

    Anyways, we have decided to put his stuff in a storage unit and mail him the lease and key by certified letter. His items are his responsibility after that.

    Yes, we had the move planned out weeks before he dipped out. He knew where we were going.

    then send him a letter telling him he needs to pick up his clothes. Send it to him certified mail.

    give him a reasonable time to pick up his clothes (maybe a month). If he does not pick them up in that time, come on back and we'll look into how to get rid of them,



    an alternate action available, since your mother has filed for divorce, is to ask the court to order he remove any and all property of his that may be at your residence.
