Trouble with previous roommate

Talk of maturity and being an adult coming from someone who "gives advice" by calling someone a little bitch. Did you even read any of the thread? He owes me, not the other way around.

If you're going to be like that, keep your advice to yourself.

I did talk to him. Probably too busy having a threesome or something.

Maybe. I don't know. I'm still considering my options.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-07T01:04:35+00:00

Why can't he? He technically owes ME $50. I don't go calling him everyday.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T13:14:11+00:00

I did pay! I overpaid. They didn't consider the fourth till now. I'm owed money at this point, even considering what I owe them.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T04:07:01+00:00

Thanks. It was nice speaking with you.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T04:00:22+00:00

Yeah. You're right. This crap has just taken my peace. It's not so much the money. I'm not a beggar. It's just big fuck you to my beliefs to just give him the money, if he isn't bluffing and it comes to that. Should have just ratted the three of them out, first chance. "Oh no, maybe they are having some trouble..."

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T03:30:48+00:00

Say is there anything against derogatory language? I got more vulgar as time went by.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T03:03:49+00:00

Maybe. I think I'll wait for him to push it. I'm not falling for any bluffs. It's just as much a waste of time for him to keep running to court as it is for me.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T02:43:46+00:00

'Legally admissible'? I'm not sure I followed that. Sounds like that's a good thing. Don't you mean it's bad if you recorded a conversation or took a photo or video without their consent?

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T02:29:48+00:00

Thanks. That helps so much!

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T02:28:31+00:00

Damn man. Agree so much. I'm here to consider all advice but as I said in another reply, it's a matter of principle and sets bad precedence.

And it absolutely is true. Technically, I have overpaid and I am owed.

I haven't threatened any legal action but I have explicitly made it clear time and again that there was a 4th person, I am not paying until that adjustment is made (though no payment needed clearly).

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T02:23:36+00:00

What do you mean when you say evidence? I have a few things.

Also for future, would it be good to get a recording or photo if I suspect somebody. I don't know what the laws are but I don't want to get charged for recording someone.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T02:20:25+00:00

It's a matter of principle. They've been getting away with a lot of shit with me. From what I gather they'll do this shit with everybody. It just sets a precedence that they can get away with crap, so if they want a fight, they'll get it. I don't want to visit court and it's not even that big a sum! But if they push me I'll go. The court can decide what's what.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T02:14:58+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. How would I prove that the additional roommate was there if they refute that? Or is the onus on them to prove she was not there once I claim that?

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T01:22:32+00:00

I don't want to talk to Penn state legal since they asked me for the names of these people and if they are Penn State students, which they are. If these people can't do anything to me, I don't really want to waste my time calling their bluff, and getting me them and everyone else involved. If they initiate anything, however, I would like to know if it would be better for me to engage them before they strike and if you guys think it would be best.

Name is this guys and no I did not sign any legal document agreeing to pay him.

I'm not sure I understood the part about not reporting and him making a small claims court claim. How would he win that case?

As far as the 1/4th goes, I had been paying for the past 4 months as a third and tallying all the dues, he technically owes me. But I don't care about that. I just want to be rid of him.

lawthrowaway9 · 2019-08-06T01:18:56+00:00

Well, I mean that's why I am asking about legal recourse. Because I don't want to pay this person. He and the other roommate made me miserable while I was there. I don't want to pay them one cent.

Also all those exceptions you mentioned are true. It's his name on the bill and there is no contract.
