What is the name of your state?Ca
My boyfriend is currently on felony probation, his probation officer made him move out because of my ex husbands police record. My question is since my house is no longer his "home address" do I have to answer my door if she knocks on it looking for him? And if I do answer it do I have to let her in?
 


Look at the probation agreement, but if the probation officer knows he is not living there and she had him removed then no, up front. However, if I am not mistaken you signed paperwork allowing consent for search, and that is in effect until you remove your name.

What does your ex-husband's police record have to do with your boyfriend?

Bottom line is that if the boyfriend is not living there then you are not subject to the search restrictions. However, if it is discovered that he IS staying there (even part of the time) and you lied, you could find yourself joining him in the fascinating world of criminal justice.

And if the P.O. made him move out, presumably he won't come there unless it's to ask where he might be. And the P.O. can always ask for him ... you can say "No" ... but, depending on the circumstances, you may have little choice but to submit to the search until they are satisfied he is gone.

Heck! Let him come in and see for himself that none of his stuff is there anymore ... it's all gone, right?
