Hello Monica, how can I assist you with your legal issue today?
I have a question regarding code enforcement within the city of Bellevue Nebraska they had come and tagged me because I had scrap metal and personal belongings in my driveway a bit of it it was a lot and I was told to clean it up they waited well over a month showed up here with the crew and took my belongings I said what right do you have to take my stuff they said my son who owns the house who is evicting us told them they can come take my stuff. Can they return a week later and take my things again without tagging me and giving me the 5 days allotted to clean it up
It sounds like a complex situation, Monica. Generally, code enforcement should provide notice before removing items. However, your son's consent, as property owner, may change things. Are you currently in an eviction process?
Yes we have a court hearing on the 14th
It's important to note:
- Nebraska law allows landlords to remove tenant's belongings after eviction.
- Bellevue City Code provides for removal of nuisance items.
- A landlord's permission might supersede any notice requirement.
Consider consulting a local attorney for personalized advice.

Which I will be out of the home within 2 days before that
If you leave before the hearing, it may resolve the eviction issue. But, make sure to update the court and your son about your departure. Also, collect all your belongings to prevent further disputes. It's best to seek advice from a local attorney.
It says the landlord's should supersede at the problem with the property is my son's name may be on it but we had a verbal agreement that it was my home and I was to have it put in my name by the end of next year and he got mad and now evicted this and so we're here we are today and not a good situation but Austin does not live here he does not have the right to tell anybody they can take my belongings
Your situation sounds complicated, Monica. Here's some general guidance:
- Verbal agreements can be legally binding, but proving their existence and content can be difficult.
- As the legal owner, your son may have certain rights over the property.
- Consult a local attorney for personalized advice.
