Our Tenant passed away 2 weeks ago of lung cancer and had not paid rent since September. We have given him eviction notices but did not file with the county. The most recent document was Demand for Compliance or Right to possession notice dated November 1st. My husband went over there on the 5th of November and our tenant was a 240lb man and now only 120lbs or less and incoherent. There was a so called friend who was to take care of him. Our tenant has no family or heirs. The so called friend who took care of him said he only had a few weeks. My husband went there on Nov 29th & he had passed away. Now his so called friend has taken all of his possessions and will not leave our property. I am going to file the Demand for Compliance etc notice with the county, and we had the police go out there and threaten them that they were trespassing and if they were not out in 3 days they would go back and arrest them. (The police told us they can not do this because we have not filed a notice of eviction with the state.) Also today the friend of tenant said they would pay us rent for two weeks and clean the place up and be out if we let them stay for two weeks. What legal right do I have now and can I now file a police report for robbery, I am sure the friend does not have any documentation that our tenant gave them all his possessions. These people look like crimminals, we do not know how long they have been there but what rights do we have. Please help.
