Your landlord would be wise to evict your troublesome neighbor, but he is probably not legally required to do so. However, you might be able to claim that your landlord is causing a public nuisance or violating your right to quiet enjoyment of the apartment by allowing your drunk neighbor to remain a tenant. I suggest you call a landlord-tenant attorney or tenants' rights group in your area for information on your specific situation and any laws that work in your favor. City or county code enforcement might also be able to help by determining whether the other tenant is a nuisance.

Can you get evicted from an illegal apartment in nc?
Additional info I have been living in this apartment for 1 year in November and there is no lease. The "apartment" does not seem like an apartment from the outside, it looks like a tool shed. If a guest who has never seen it were to walk up to it, they would have no idea it is an apartment. The landlord built it himself, originally so his son could smoke pot there. Oh yea, landlord is a retired cop. Anyways, the apartment has no windows and no fire extinguisher and no smoke detectors. The kitchen and bathroom are all in one room. The only thing that separates the toilet from kitchen is a curtain. I recently lost my job and will not be able to pay rent until I find another job. I have never been late or behind on rent. Can the landlord evict me?
