I live in a moble home park in SD, My son is in jail and will be getting out soon. The city owns the land and leases it to a private investor.I recently got a letter from the leaser that if my son moves in or visits me I will be immediatly evicted.I have lived here 8 years and always pay space rent on time.I think someone should at least be given a chance. By the way there is a convicted child molestor living here.Charged with lewd and lascivios acts with a child under the age of 14. He is 57 years old. Is this fair?

You've asked this before and the answer won't change. You CAN be evicted. Period.

Unless SD has started their own country they can't evict you as long as your son is legally out and has no restrictions, (house arrest). They may not like the idea but if he has paid his time he should be free to go anywhere. I think it would be anteresting court case, especially with a convicted sex offender living there.pp

It is the right of landlord to evict, however if you feel that the eviction does not meet the requirements set out in the landlord act of SD or that the issue of eviction would shock the consciense of the court by violating your right of quiet enjoyment, and if properly presented, then you also have the right to object to such eviction in a court of law. I would recommend that you seek legal advice on this issue and if you can not afford an attorney you might want to visit this link

Finally I would seek to understand the laws of your state as they extend protections to renters here

Best of luck to you

.No it is not I am from Indiana so I do not know the laws down there but my advice it to put up a fight. Sounds like the private investor is a selfish son of a *****. Get all you can get out of him if the eviction does occur

Whether or not it is fair, it is the purview of the leaser to evict you if your son moves in or visits.
Life is not always what we consider 'fair'. If you want your son to live with you, start looking for another place to live.

Is your park a senior only park? If so that would support their eveiction of you.
If the city owns the land, I have to assume there is something more to the story than you have written.
If you really feel it is unfair, contact the city. They still have some responsibility regardless of who the lease it to.

I dont think Yahoo answers is the place to find your answer. Hire a lawyer or move so your son can visit you.

If your son was convicted on a crime committed on the premises, you're lucky you're still there.
