Legal Battle Over Squatter in Douglaston, N.Y.
The Landa family is in a legal battle to evict a squatter from their $2 million home in Douglaston, N.Y. The squatter, Brett Flores, refused to leave after the death of the previous owner, claiming permission to remain. The family offered to pay him to vacate, but he demanded more than $100,000. Flores is accused of causing damage and financial strain on the Landas by renting out rooms and abusing utilities.
