    Default Can You Get Kicked Out Without Notice if You Don't Pay Rent

    My question involves an eviction in the state of: Rhode Island I have lived with my Boyfriends family for two years now. I am 19 years old. His grandmother owns the house and is an alcoholic. She recently kicked me out of the house and told me I have one month. I do not pay rent but my legal address is here. Does she need to give me an eviction notice? Also can she change the locks on me before the day she gave me to move out? Can she stop me from going in the property to get my belongings out when she is not there? Can she keep my property? Thank you in advance!

    Default Re: Being Kicked Out Illegally

    She MUST follow the law according to Rhode Island.

    She cannot change the locks, she cannot bar you from the property and she absolutely cannot keep your belongings.
