My roommate gave me 30 days notice two weeks in advance. I found a place for the start of the month. He wants to hold me hostage to the final month rent because it's more financially convenient for him. He says I'm obliged to him for the entire next month. I thought 30 days notice meant I had 30 days to vacate and that rent should be prorated?
I stated to him 30 days notice would be until the middle of the next month, therefore, he would owe me half a month's rent and utilities.
What does the law say on this matter?
Thank you in advance ; )
