My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Ga.
My boyfriend and myself (pregnant at time) and our daughter moved into his dads house (he doesnt live here) reluctantly to try and save $ for own place so no rent paid or utilities..boyfriends younger bro was luving here already...dad came by and said we had 1 week to move, no written notice or legal notice served. We are now a family of 4 +dog/cat and its christmas time and we have no place to go in 1week..the next day he came and put locks on other rooms in house that our property is stored in. Note stated he would come by to unlock if we needed anything..it was obviously our stuff in 1 of them toys carseat childrens clothes etc yet he still locked door. How can he keep us locked away from our property and tell us leave. The note he left telling us about locks also stated he had ordered dumpster for anything left after dec.11th, a week exactly since he told my BF we had to move out. We have been here ling enough that we get mail here. Doesnt he have to evict us? Are the locks on doors legal? Can he start throwing our stuff out on 11th or even 12th without filing proper eviction?
