My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: OREGON
Hi I have been reading around, but have not been able to find anything specific to my situation.
Here's the situation:
I started dating a women in November. She moved in with me around Mid January on this year.
She never got on the lease.
She has never paid rent, or contributed anything financially to help out.
Things went south, or more or less I got tired of taking care of an adult woman who won't contribute anything, and is obviously using my place as a storage unit for all her usleess junk she collects. I tried my best to remain civil, and asked her at the beginning on June to move out by the end of the month. She confirmed this 3 different times that she agreed to this over text message.
I didn't see any effort or evidence that she was planning on moving out the last week of June. I was looking for some thing, around in a pile of her clothes, and I found a meth needles. I then found empty drug bags which seemed to contain maybe meth or cocaine residue in them. I contacted my landlord about it. Took pictures, but threw them out as I have a child in my home. He issues her a 72 hour eviction notice for being an illegal tenant. And changed the locks after the time was up. And stated that she has 15 days to get her stuff out, or he can remove it.
Can he do that? I am not the one that issued the eviction. He did entirely. She is threatening to sue me now. Can she do that? What is my best recourse of action here.
Context for her:
She has no income, so I doubt she could come up with the money it would take to sue. If that's even an option for her.
She is stating that I can't lock her out, and his eviction is illegal. Do I have to let her in? My landlord has stated that I cannot let her in. This seems like a sticky situation. I just want to take the path of least resistance here. Lesson learned for sure though. Don't take in stray cats in Portland.
