According to IndyBizLaw.com, getting a trespasser our of a property early is the best way to handle this. The reason police may not interfere and remove a person from a property after a certain amount of time is the fact that they have a number of possessions in the home, and the police have no desire, or need, to remove the property. In cases where the property has been occupied by a squatter, generally a court order is needed to be obtained in order to remove the squatter.

I was listening to Dave Ramsey's show one day and in California as a landlord you can't throw out a squatter! The police can't even get them out--even if you own the place if the squatter has been there for a while! The squatter didn't have owner's rights, but, he had tenant rights! It's a scary thought that someone could just move in a place and not be escorted out...I wonder what the laws on this subject are in Indiana?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
