    Default Re: Must Evict Boat Slip Renter (Tenant is Not a Live Aboard) on Texas Lake

    If the tenant and his boat venture from the slip after the 3 day notice expires, then may I legally chain the dock so the tenant's boat cannot reenter the slip?
    Under some circumstances it might be legal, under others it might not.

    I think your situation falls under the Commercial Rental Property statute:
    https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/D.../htm/PR.93.htm

    I'm not going to take the time to analyze it. If you read it carefully, I think what amounts to a lock out would subject you to a civil lawsuit for the penalties outlined in the statute.

    Don't take any chances.

    Have your rental agreement reviewed by a lawyer and have the lawyer handle the eviction in the proper manor.
