My daughter lives in an appartment. Has a very nice man, who was in the wrong place when he was 16 now 24 has a felony record. The appartment supervisor has looked up his record and said- we are being evicted because he goes to my daughters. He is not allowed on the property. Do they have the right to do this? He is not on the lease. He helps he when she works with the children.

I don't know what country you are from or what city or state you are in if you are in the United States, but the landlord might be within his rights to do what he did. I know that many apartment managers check criminal records of their tenants and guests and will evict them if they have a certain type of conviction.
Now, the question that I have is how did he find out about your daughter's boyfriend's conviction? Was he being added to the lease? Did she give him his name? As far as I know, if the man wasn't causing trouble and was not living in that building, there should have been no reason to pry into your daughter's life like that.
