Lodger won't leave!!

I think your friend needs to be careful that he doesn't get accused of assaulting her or worse ...she sounds a nightmare!! Definitely involve a solicitor and he shouldn't try to discuss this without a witness present

I would wait until she was out and deposit her belongings on the driveway and also change the locks. There is nothing in writing, and it is your friend's home. He is entitled to evict her! It is different if there is a formal agreement or if he didn't live at the house.
I had lodgers for years and the most important thing is to have a written agreement, which includes all the little details, things that you think won't happen but could.
I did the same when I bought a horse with a friend, we had a very detailed written agreement. She ended up having some serious medical issues, her (non-horsey) partner had to deal with the situation and I was so glad we had put everything in writing, as in the end she had to sell her half. But the price and everything had been sorted out in advance in case it should ever happen (we never in a million years thought we would need that contract!).

I would get your friend to read the above posts and act accordingly,as Buffy states lodgers have no rights at all.can your friend not get a friend or relative toact as a go between if he finds the woman intimadating and get them to issue the new notice to leave.

I along with others think that the cost of a solicitor's letter is well worth it. It puts this scenario on a legal footing and this minx cannot run roughshod over your friend.

I would definitely involve a solicitor; sometimes just an official solicitor's letter does the trick, if not, the landlord will find out his legal position.

Many apologies, I see the friend is male.

You say she is bringing men back to the house? I hope your friend doesn't get accused of running a brothel. Yes , issue her with written notice to leave. Perhaps seek legal advice. Does your friend have a male friend or relative to back her up?

Exactly what Buffybee says. If he wants to he could get a solicitor to put the notice in writing stating that her refusal to leave is giving him no alternative than to evict her on such and such a date.

Lodgers have very few Legal rights.
Your friend will have had a verbal agreement with this woman but can choose to evict her for any reason.
Your friend has already given her notice to leave but then he let her stay.
So he needs to give her another notice to leave, after the notice to leave comes to an end, if she will not move out, at this point she is trespassing and the Landlord will be able to evict her peaceably I.e. Changing the locks while she is out.
Do not threaten or use any physical force as you may be committing a criminal offence.
Under no circumstances let her back in the house, pack her room up and have it in bags at the door, to hand to her, if she causes problems, you are within your rights to call the Police.
Give her a reasonable time, say 14 days to move her property out of his garage, otherwise you will despose of it.
