Actually, depending on what kind of arrangements are in place, his lawyer might be violating an ethics rule by providing his client with a place to live--not that that is something you can probably raise in the context of your proceedings, but your lawyer might be able to file a grievance if it's improper under the disciplinary rules.
(e) A lawyer shall not provide financial assistance to a client in connection with pending or contemplated litigation, except that:
(1) a lawyer may advance court costs and expenses of litigation, the repayment of which may be contingent on the outcome of the matter; and
(2) a lawyer representing an indigent client may pay court costs and expenses of litigation on behalf of the client.
ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct 1.8.
You might want to ask your lawyer about that.
