Tenant would like evict their now adult child

[Heath Donnald]

My tenant has a young adult child that was on the lease as a minor. Domestic issues has her asking about how to force him to move out. Two options I see as a landlord 1) If lease has been violated, eviction notice could be sent. 2) Request a new lease be signed due to new terms (whatever I decide they may be) and then not approve the adult child to be added.

Has anyone else dealt with a similar issue or have a recommendation? I don't want to wade into a domestic issue, but willing help if there's a good way. Thanks.

@Heath Donnald  haven't had a similar issue but if the child is abusive to her she can get an order of protection against him and in most states that means someone has to move out.  If she wants to lock him out she can do so.    You can not approve him as an occupant but not sure about an eviction then and why would you want to do that for her? I know my brother had to file an eviction against nieces of his girlfriend. That would be the equivalent of the mom filing eviction, not you.  He was effectively considered as their LL.
