This is the last month of the lease my brother and I share with our shady roommate. He has not yet paid his share, and every time we ask about it he shrugs and claims not to have the money or pretends not to hear. He has been late and/or short every month for the past four months. on top of that he has not paid any money towards the bills for three months, and he racks up a hundred dollars or more in long distance calls every month. He has borrowed lots of money from both of us without paying it back, yet he constantly buys stuff (4-5 DVDs and CDs a week). Two weeks ago we came home to find a ton of furniture and three people in our house, he told a bunch of his future roommates they could crash at our place for the rest of the month.
We just want what is rightfully ours. A friend suggested we take some of his stuff and hold it until he pays us back. Is this legal? We are moving on the 21st so we need to figure out what to do soon. Help.
