MA,
Here is the situation.
My friend starting living this guy in his house with him since june 2007,no lease and no security deposit was asked.Now suddenly this year his landlord who also lives in the same house in a separate room is asking him to sign up a lease and put down one months rent as security deposit.firstly can he do that? is he doing this just to harrass my friend so he will just leave on his own ,saving the landlord a legal wrangle?I am not very clear any thoughts?
thanks
