At the end of Dec. I met a bunch of possible roommates to rent a bedroom
in my apartment. I asked for a months deposit (450 inc. utilities), which he gave me in two installments after moving in Jan 1. All was easy until Feb 28 (when the rent should have been in the mail) and he said that he found another place and that he was giving me a month notice. When I saw him on March 2 I asked for the rent. He said that I should use the deposit, I said that was tough since he gave me no notice. He is now protesting and says he won't leave until I give him whatever amt I still owe on the deposit. He's become increasingly hostile to me.I don't know that he's not going to trash my stuff. Do I have any recourse? My name is the only one on the lease.
