Ejectment is both the removal of the person in possession and judicial determination of ownership

Ejectment

Any time an occupant of a dwelling unit has a claim to ownership of the property,  you will have to file an ejectment in Circuit Court to remove such person.  This is not a summary proceeding.  The defendant will have 20 days to file a responsive pleading.   The case will take many months.  

What constitutes a claim of ownership?

A contract to purchase the property.  An option to purchase the property.  Even if said contracts/options have expired.  A claim to the property in probate.  Spousal rights under Florida homestead.
