The coronavirus emergency and the many people who have already lost their jobs would not have stopped Donald Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, from asking for the eviction of some defaulters. According to the American website The Intercept, at least fifteen people, between New Jersey and Maryland, have received the eviction notice from Kushner's lawyers. In these two states, the lockdown has taken place, which has forced the courts to suspend the hearings, but it is not forbidden to present cases to ask for the payment of arrears and the eviction for those who are behind in rents.

On March 25, Westminster Management, which is part of the group led by Kushner, asked the local police of Essex, Maryland for the eviction of a man. On March 30, the company filed another urgent notice of eviction against another tenant.

A few days earlier, it had affected other people who live in management apartments, in Edison and Long Branch, New Jersey, and Middle River, Maryland. At the moment, however, there would be at least 15 people who are the recipients of the eviction notice.

Kushner, whose personal assets total approximately $ 800 million, is currently a personal adviser to the president.
