Hello and welcome !

Please note that I have created this new thread on the Panama forum from your post for better visibility.

Have you contacted the police ?

I believe that you are the wife of the late Major General Albert Stubblebine.聽 I met you and your husband in Volcan around 2009.

The short answer is you'll have to go through the courts to have them evicted. A few years ago I was asked by the sister of a family member of I knew where you were and I told her no.

The story I was told is that he was asked to care for the property and he hadn't been paid in over a decade but I also recall something about her saying that he was allowed to live there for free for taking care of the property.

I have her contact information somewhere and I'm sorry I can't be more specific because the most recent conversation I had about it was 4 years ago.

If you send me a message I will give you her contact information (she only speaks Spanish).

But no matter you'll have to get an attorney at some point to evict the person and settle anything in regards to the care of the property over the years.

PS: Sorry for your loss.

The only way o get rid of them is a local lawyer. Be aware that Panama has a law (like some other countries do) that gives you property rights if you occupy a property (land, house) for a certain number of years (between 10 and 15 years), in a peaceful, public manner.

So if your property is worth anything to you, get your papers together, go there, and speak to the local juez de paz. They are competent for evictions. If the case becomes more complex, you'll need to hire a private lawyer.

It鈥檚 never a good idea to leave property unattended anywhere. It鈥檚 always best to rent it cheap on the condition that the tenants take care of it. If not, then sell it. Panama gov is usually going to side with the Panamanian. You can get done what you need to do but they will nickel-dime you like crazy and it will usually take a long time.
