Generally, no. You can evict someone from a property you do not own if you are an "agent" of the owner by virtue of a legal document such as a power of attorney or a management agreement recorded in the land records. You should consult with an attorney who can review the details and explain your options.

No. A person cannot be "evicted" from their home. There are other operations of law that would result in a person losing their home. However, none would be properly called an eviction.

  • In a domestic case, a judge could issue an order removing one party from their home.
  • A town could take the property for non-payment of property taxes.
  • A lender could take the property by foreclosure if the borrower defaults on the mortgage.
  • The government could take the property by a forfeiture in a criminal case.

If its your house/your own property absolutely not.

Another View: What do you mean by "your ownhouse?"

If you actually do OWN the property in question - (in the US) you have the right to exercise any lawful activity within the confines of your property PROVIDING that the activity is not otherwise, per se, unlawful. Smoking in your private residence has (not yet) been made unlawful in the US.

HOWEVER - if you are renting or leasing the property and the lessor has included a clause in your lease agreement/rental contract that no smoking will be allowed to take place in their rented property, then you are in violation of your contract, and the landlord may take whatever action he deems appropriate.
