CAR: Except, in this instance, you can make a strong case that the lodger, by refusing to perform said services, has reneged and breached the contract.
The suggestion below is a good one: Hire a company that does this professionally and have them deal with this.[/quote]
Agree on the breach of contract, but it seems (just based on other articles and comments about the story) that a live-in worker has rights because the home is considered their residence.
Crazy stuff, and one more reason for us not to build a granny flat in our backyard that we were thinking about. UCGal’s story regarding her tenant’s girlfriend/boyfriend was my other red flag.
BTW, UCGal, how did you end up handling that? Did you have them sign the new rules regarding how many nights a bf/gf can stay per week?
