A Familiar Story

Here’s a story that I hear fairly often. It takes place in Syracuse New York, but it could be happening anywhere.  A relative or significant other who is living free without cost refuses to leave.  This one is a thirty-something son who doesn’t have a job.  The judge is prepared to sign an eviction order and he’s threatening to appeal.

There are two ways to do it.  One is to begin an action for possession with a Magistrate.  The other is to commence an action in ejectment, which goes before a judge.

Here’s the link to the story.
