A life tenant does not have a present ownership or future ownership in the property so a grantor cannot usually be evicted. If this is a revocable trust or testamentary instrument, the grantor (if alive) can simply revoke the directive and move the life tenant out. Ultimately, the life tenant will have to use care in the household and not waste anything or creat waste. Ultimately, there is an indirect responsibility I would argue to the final beneficiary.
