text: in florida can i remove someone from  my home if he is not on the lease? he keeps losing  jobs, partying and disappearing for days if a) he's not on the lease and b) he's not a spouse or dependent in the eye of the law (you're not married with him, including common law marriage and other forms of civil union, he's not a minor child or invalid relative, that kind of stuff)  you  could get away with changing the locks and giving him his stuff back the next time he shows up.  better have him served with a restraining order at the same time, though... treating people that way has a tendency to get them p oed.
