[QUOTE="bigfug, post: 3256928, member: 4864"] They are squatting. He has no agreement with them. He may have hurt by allowing them to stay for more than 30 days, not sure of exact time frame in OK, but they may now have tenant rights and he may be implicitly agreeing with their presence. He needs to call the police. If they determine they are squatting and not trespassing, it becomes a civil matter, and they cant do anything, thats OK. The eviction process begins but is shorter for squatting than an actual tenant. The faster he acts, the stronger his case. I would also see who is on the utilities. If in his name, he can cut them off. If in someone else's, it could be a tenant rights violation. I would call the police first, offer them $ to leave once squatting has been established by them, and let them know, take the $ as I have started the eviction process. They stand to lose more by staying, since they will incur legal costs, and could lose personal property during the eviction as well. [/QUOTE]
