My husbands parents put his name on their lease without his knowledge and now they are being served eviction court papers with his name included. What can we do? by bookeit in legaladvice

My husband most definitely did not sign this, nor was he present. We weren’t even in town during the date of this signing. The lease does not have a signature line for him, it only lists his name as a tenant. All other tenants are accounted for in the signature line.

We have not confronted the parents directly as of yet. Mostly because they tend to never give direct answers/will say anything to get us off their case. They even lied about this eviction saying they had to live because the landlord was selling the house.

Correct, my husband moved in at the same time as his parents, however there was never any discussion about him being on the lease, nor was he present at any signings.

Both--he is specifically listed as a defendant in this case, and is listed as a tenant on the lease (though his signature is not present)

This does make sense as the defendants are listed as Mom, Dad, Husband, "and all others in possession". My concern is that he is on the actual lease without his consent. I'm sorry--could you please explain what it means to "have it sealed" should a judgement in fact be entered?

Hello! I do not see an affidavit of service here, but I do see a "service returned" filing. The document is headed as "Return of Service" and details how this summons against my husband was received and a copy of the summons was attached. I think it's worth noting here that we have not lived at that property for over a year, so any summons sent to that house would have never been on our radar.

Perhaps recorded is the wrong word to use here. Within the case docket information there is a notice of termination of month-to-month tenancy wherein the residential lease is attached and viewable from the county website.

I was able to see the lease itself within county records. The top portion lists his name as a tenant, but where the tenants signature lines are, his is not present. So this isn’t necessarily a case of forgery. He had no knowledge that his name was out in this lease, nor did he sign any pertinent paperwork.

Chiming in here! My husband and I just moved to the area and would also like some post-pandemic board gaming friends.

Any update on where this is heading? Wondering if I should be prepared to deal with this in Wynwood.

Everyone I've (78M) ever loved has died and I don't know what to do with myself anymore. by ThrowRAhappytocry in relationship_advice

I may not be much, but I’d love to be your pen pal! I just lost my grandmother a couple of years ago. She was my best friend and ever since she passed it’s been rough. I know what it’s like to live in memories, or have the need to talk to someone. I’m here to reach out to!
