Stop people from legally staying in a home, without being on the lease or owner of the house

Created by J.R. on July 26, 2013

Residency laws need to be changed, allowing people who stay with you to become legal able to be there and do anything unless they're evicted. Is a bullshit law. I feel if they're aren't on the lease or own there property they have no legal right to live there. Here is my reason for this.
I live in West Virginia. Recently My mom whose is renting her house, let a kid stay here. He stayed off and on, leaving every friday and coming back on sundays and was not here for two weeks consecutively, i was told that's the least amount of time to someone has to stay there to be a legal resident. He did not pay bills or help in any way. he just slept in the house. This is an outrage and strongly need to be addressed
