[FL] Can a family member landlord force out a month-to-month tenant without an eviction process?

Hello, I currently live in the state of Florida and our landlord, who is family, is trying to force us to move out even though rent has been paid. We do not have a written lease so we are considered month to month tenants. We have receipts of our rent payments available. Legally, they cannot proceed to force us out without going through the proper eviction process.

[FL] Can a behavioral health facility legally hold a patient’s belongings after an AMA discharge request?

My daughter entered a health facility in West Palm Beach, Florida, with the intent to undergo inpatient treatment for trauma. Once there, she realized it's more of a substance abuse center and wants to leave. She signed an AMA for release, but the facility is holding her personal belongings for 72 hours. Is there a legal authority they can use to hold her personal items (phone, passport, medications) for 72 hours after signing the AMA form?

[FL] Can I remove a violent relative from my late mother’s home?

My mother just passed away, and I’m wondering, because my uncle jumped me that same day, and now that she’s gone, he’s not on the name of this house as her son, do I have the right to move his stuff out after the fact of having that charge put on him for domestic violence by hitting me? Therefore, if so, is it illegal for me to do that? I don’t want him around me. I can’t even get down to the courthouse to get the injunction final, or whatever that is, and I’m just clueless on what to do. I do not want him back here because he is very serious about what he’s going to do. So all I need to know is this: yes, do I have, as her son, the right to move his stuff out because I’ve kicked him out? I don’t want him here, or do I need to go by the books, and what would be the first step I need to take? I’ve asked around here, and they’ve been wonderful people. I’m just clueless in this stuff, but I don’t want him here. So my thing is this: as long as he can come around here, do I have the right to move his stuff out? I live here as well.
