    Default Roommate's Rights to Guests

    My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: tx i am living with my soon to be husband when he stoped coming home and called to tell me he has a new gf and he is moving her in and i have to leave or stay and live with them. I went to my land lord right away to figure out my options and she told me he can not move her in with out my permission since were both on the lease. However now he wants to have her stay over on the weekends. I move out in 60 days via a transfer but i do not see why and how she has any right to be in my home everyweekend until i leave. I have a two yr old son and dont think he should be around my son. My ex lives in the living room so its not like shell just be in his room. My ex has started threating me if i dont agree to let her stay . The landlord said his guest our my guest and if i dont feel safe then she cant be here. What do i do when i come home and she is here . He had told me she uses meth and i dont want my son around her

    Not sure where my response went; however.....a tenant (and since the husband is on the lease, he remains a tenant) has a right to have guests over. As the landlord stated, he doesn't have a right to have someone move in without the permission of both the landlord AND the other tenants and this has not been granted.

    Why shouldn't your husband be around his son (I'm assuming this is his son)?

    If your husband (and your posting is confusing because in one part you call him your "soon to be husband" and in the next you call him your "ex"; I'm going to assume you meant your "soon to be ex-husband" which means you're still married to him) is making threats to your physical health, consider the option of a restraining order. If you have actual evidence regarding the new girlfriends drug use, report her to the police.
