Can my husband move his 37 yr old son into our home without my permission?
My 37 yr old step son cannot keep a job. Has never had one for more than 3 mos. My husband still helps him finacially, continuing to enable him. His son is disrespectful and hostile towards me, verbally, not physically.
His son moved out less than a year ago after a 3 mos stay turned into almost 2 yrs, He is about to lose his current place to live. I am afraid my husband will try to let him stay here again. Do I have any rights to prevent this?
We own our home together. We have no mortgage.
This sounds more like a family relations problem than a legal one. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Any owner of real property can permit someone to occupy the premises. So, yes, your husband can permit his son to occupy the premises. If you are the co-owner of the property, you have authority based on your percentage of ownership. In general, when 2 owners cannot agree on how to use real property they own jointly, they have the ability to file a partition action, in which the court can order division or sale of the property. There may be other legal options as well, but you'd need to get a consultation from an attorney for advice.
