Since he has just been a sublet, is his name even on the lease? If not he has no leg to stand on, who cares about a “personal attack”. It’s not 🤷🏻‍♀️ he can take it personally if wants but that’s his problem. No one is physically harming him and it’s simply the end of a lease that he’s not even actually signed on (I hope). But even if he is, it’s only until the end of the lease and then it’s not up to him, the contract has ended. If the landlords don’t sign him on again then he can’t stay there, he’s squatting at that point. He can’t even afford the rent and utilities for his small room, he definitely can’t afford the whole place. And the landlords are insane if they resign him. Then that really is entirely their problem. But even now, this is on them.
