In New York, a judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by squatters attempting to claim ownership of a $930K Queens home, using a Shake Shack receipt as evidence of their residence. The squatters, known for driving a Porsche, demanded to be recognized as heirs to a Long Island 'Zombie home,' even forging the deceased homeowner's name on a lease. This case highlights the exploitation of legal loopholes and the challenges in evicting squatters due to anti-landlord laws and crowded court systems. Critics argue that allowing squatters to seize property without rightful ownership does not address the housing shortage and undermines property rights.

Crazy anti-landlord laws mean that in many states, if a squatter simply CLAIMS to have a lease, cops can’t do anything. @flash_shelton tells me his solution: out-squat the squatter! https://t.co/cVj58RfTCv
