This is an ejectment (possibly with quiet title). How long have the occupants been on the property?

Listmates:

Clients allowed acquaintances to move their RV onto client’s property until they got back on their feet.  No rent was charged.  Now the people appear to be attempting to take over a portion of the property for themselves.  They have installed fencing around a portion of the RV; they removed trees and shrubs; they took over a garage; they even brought a large pet snake onto the property which they were told before, they could not due.  They even told a Sheriff Deputy that they own the property (in order to have an abandoned care removed).  The clients want these people to move.

I am not sure if this situation arises to a landlord-tenant relationship covered by the moratorium, but I assume courts will treat it as such.  If it is not a landlord-tenant relationship; are ejectment actions still available?  Your ideas would be helpful
