Analysis and Conclusion:
The collective judicial stance confirms that the Supreme Court and other courts uphold eviction orders against sons and daughters-in-law when justified by bona fide need, rent default, or legal provisions.

These rulings reinforce the legal principle that eviction can be lawfully ordered to serve genuine personal or family needs, provided procedural fairness is maintained.
