Evicting Ex-fiance
Relationship was dissolved over 3 years ago and ex will not move. Have finally had enough! Told him to get out, I want my house back (it is in my name only). Still won’t leave. He has no place to go. I was informed that I can’t physically move him out because he can sue me for ”intent to convert his property”? and that I have to give him 60 days on a ”notice to quit”? Is this correct? Where are my rights in all this? I have made all the payments and all the bills while this deadbeat lived for free basically and he has rights? What kind of recourse do I have, if any and is it really 60 days?
Re: Evicting Ex-fiance
No. It is 30 days. Serve him with a notice to vacate. If he doesn’t leave then, start eviction proceedings against him. Good luck and thanks for inquiring.

Re: Evicting Ex-fiance
As of January 1, 2003, a landlord (which you are) must give 60 days WRITTEN notice IN PROPER FORM to terminate to terminate the tenancy, if the tenant has lived in the property for more than 1 year. That appears to be the case here.
Give him the 60 day notice, then file for unlawful detainer (eviction).
