Would you evict this person?
I came across this article today. The circumstances are a little unusual and I thought I would throw it out there for some discussion.

Sounds like this 80-year old has been staying in the apartment for 20 years. She has been undergoing cancer treatment and was in a care facility for six months. A caretaker who didn't live at the apartment was paying the rent. Apparently a couple of checks bounced.
Sounds like the caretaker tried to pay the bounced checks but the payments were not accepted.
After reading the story share your thoughts. Should the court allow this eviction? What do you think about the landlord's motivation?
