Tell me what can be done if a neighbor in a communal apartment is constantly drunk, his room is dirty, there is an incredibly unpleasant smell, these stench spreads throughout the apartment, it is unclean, he goes to the toilet by the toilet. His room is privatized. Is it possible to evict him?

According to paragraph 3 of Art. 30 RF Housing Code, the owner of the living quarters bears the burden of maintaining this premises, and if the building is an apartment, the common property of the owners of the premises in the corresponding apartment building, and the owner of the room in the communal apartment also bears the burden of maintaining the common property of the owners of the rooms in such an apartment. Your neighbor does not fulfill the obligation imposed on him by the law to maintain a dwelling, treats him mismanagement, while violating your rights and legitimate interests. You lose the opportunity to use your room. in accordance with Art. 293 of the Civil Code, if the owner of the dwelling premises uses it for other purposes, systematically violates the rights and interests of neighbors or mismanages the housing, allowing its destruction, the local government can warn the owner about the need to eliminate the violations, and if they entail the destruction of the premises, also appoint the owner proportionate term for the repair of the premises. If, after a warning, the owner continues to violate the rights and interests of neighbors or if he does not use the premises for other purposes or without good reason, the court, at the suit of the local government, may decide to sell such premises from the public auction with payment to the owner of the proceeds from the sale less the costs of enforcing the judgment.
