Background: I work in California ( in short contract assignment) but my permanent and domicile address is in union city NJ in a triplex that I bought last year. I have a section 8 tenant from hell. There have been lease violations, including her son attempting to assault my dad twice, and lived there for months in violation of lease.pl Police reports filed for the attempted assault .. waiting con court.. it's a very tenant friendly town and I was told the fastest way out would be to evict the tenant via : owner occupied eviction due to lease termination.. I sent a letter to evict and a volunteer lawyer returned saying I can't evict because I'm techinicslly not living there.. I consulted a lawyer and she said I pay taxes and everything there so I'm a valid live in owner.. so my questions are:
what is the legal code ( which I have to cite in letter ) for this type of eviction?
should I take the time to evict her for violations ( that she can potentially dispute and drag out)??
does anyone have any advice?
