You mean why can't she live for free in the unihabitable property? That doesn't sound ridiculous to you? It certainly will to a judge. That stated, your mother needs to move from that property for her health immediately. Otherwise, at some point she igoing to end up paying full rent or face eviction or worse become ill and she will bear fault for it because while complaining of illness from the mold - she refused to leave. One cannot complain of burnt feet while refusing to leave the burning embers of a burned out apartment, and mold is just another exmple of the same logic.
