FAIRFIELD, Conn., Feb. 17 (UPI) -- A Connecticut man attempting to have his 98-year-old mother evicted from her home said he wants her out of the house for her own good.

Peter Kantorowski, 71, eldest son of Mary Kantorowski, said he wants his mother out of the Fairfield home she has occupied since 1953 because "she would be better off living with people her own age," the Connecticut Post reported Friday.

A trial to determine whether Mary Kantorowski will be evicted is scheduled for March 2 in Bridgeport Superior Court.

Richard Bortolot Jr., a lawyer appointed by Fairfield Probate Judge Daniel Caruso to represent Mary Kantorowski, said his client's son only wants her gone so he can profit from the property.

"This is just a despicable situation," he said. "Mary has been living here happily paying all the expenses for the house and now her son, Peter, comes along and is telling her, 'Get the hell out,' so he can sell it."

Peter Kantorowski said his mother has rejected his invitations to live with him.

"I have this big house in Trumbull and she is welcome to come live with me," he said. "I took care of my mother-in-law until she died in my house."
