roommate went South

[onetitfemme]

Hi,
.
My roommate hasn't paid rent for July and I have tried to contact her
in anyway I could to no avail.
.
I decided to enter her room thinking she had just left without telling
me (she wouldn't talk much anyway, even though we were nice to each
other and never had issues or anything)
.
She left some of her belongings in the room and I need advice on how to
dispose of her belongings so I can rent the room out to someone else.

Is there a certain amount of time that I have to wait to rent the room
out, what type of legal notice do I need to give and what do I do with
her things?
.
Thanks for the tips

Then let's hear about the Existence/NONexistence of the Written/Formal

otf: I live in NYC. Her main residence was in Boston, MA and I think
she was looking for a job here in NYC, but I don't know if she got it
or not ...

Lease Agreement...

otf: She was not formally included in the lease. She knew about the
room from the craigslist and there wasn't any other formality than her
written statement on a check and my caching it. In a sense I have been
incredibly lucky with roommates so far this way
.
Thanks

If she went back to Boston, the only way to collect money from her is
through small claims court in Boston. You must file where the
defendant lives and/or works.

WOW! Travel to Boston, hotels, gas, meals, to file a bullshit lawsuit?

If the original poster was so stupid not to get VALID ID and a deposit,
he deserves to get screwed.

I had a roommate that tried moving out without telling me (I found out
through other means). He left a bunch of his things behind saying he
was going to pick them up.

After four months, I found out where he moved to and took him to
court. The arbitrator told me that I was legally responsible for
keeping his things and he was required to pay his share of the rent.

He still owes you the money, and you are still wanking to his old Club
magazines?

Did I strike a nerve with you Phil over your classic "Strokebook" collection?

You made a proclimation, we want to hear the result.

You RepubLICKans spew on and on abour "nuisance lawsuits"....seems like
you filed one!

So I ask AGAIN...what was the ultimate result of your frivilous lawsuit?

Did you ever get the money "owed" you? <snigger>
