View Full Version : Legal advice: non-contract subletter can't pay rent and refusing to leave

So I live in this 3-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn (have for the last 5 years) with myself and my other close friend the only ones on the lease. We brought in a subletter about 3 months ago and didn't do the proper due diligence (mainly b/c another friend of ours who was originally staying there moved out quickly and we didn't have much time). The subletter is a very awkward mid thirties guy from trinidad who barely says a word for reference.

Towards the middle-end of August, he just says he can no longer pay rent and starts saying he won't be bullied and that he has the right to stay. Because he's lived here for over 30 days it gives him tenant rights even though he's not on the lease. I was pretty heated and I said I would bring some friends over and have him removed physically. He then calls the cops and says I threatened him with violence lol. The cops do nothing, say this needs to be resolved with the landlord (which technically I am this guy's landlord b/c he's not the on lease). That next day my friend who's on the lease put together a notice of termination and had his gf serve it to the guy. It gives him 30 day notice before we can officially evict. The next day we also changed the wifi password.

Now it's a week later, and this motherf*cker is in no rush to go anywhere. Literally won't leave the apartment, just sits in his room with no wifi or comes out into the kitchen and cooks like everything is fine. It's insane.

How in the hell can I legally get this guy the f*ck out of my house as quickly as possible? We considered changing the locks, but we know there could be legal ramifications that could allow him to stay longer if we did. I feel like he is literally gonna just squat for the 30 days and plus however long the eviction process is. There has to be a way to get him out of here faster.

Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated.

Apparently, that can lead to a judge granting him a longer stay if he pursues it through the court b/c it's an "unlawful eviction" or something.

Plus this mother****er WON'T leave the apartment.

You really think Trinidad James is gonna go through all that shit? Best he could do is call 911 and make up some shit. This is all bluff. Literally throw all of his shit out and change the locks and deal with the consequences later. Heads up, there will be none.

Isn't it ironic our SJW Comrade friend wants to kick a black man out onto the street for failing to make rent during a deadly pandemic

Uh nah, my friend on the lease with me is Jamaican American. This has nothing to do with race.

It has to do with this leech POS trying to steal money from us and squat in our apartment.

Sounds similar to our illegal immigrants situation.
Kind of sucks when you want to kick someone out who doesn't belong there

sounds like his privacy worth just about nothing. my advice is throw a party inviting mainly females, just so the natural conversation and movements of the female would "in the old school term man him up" while in the new school, it's just to drive him insane/nuts.

this problem actually originates from old man complaining that their son is gay, and trying to turn them straight while dealing with resistance of the gays sticking to being gay.

Hopefully having him there in the first place is against the terms of your lease and you get kicked out over a **** load of drama that unfolds. Unfortunately I’m guessing that won’t happen if NYC is desperate for renters. It was also stupid af to give him a letter with your name on it saying that he lived there, hahaha.

**** legal options...

Starve him out. Remove all the food. Intercept any and all deliveries. Change the locks when he leaves.

Drug him with a sleeping pill and melatonin. He won’t wake up. Physically remove him and change the locks.

Threaten nothing... just beat the **** out of him or throw him out on the street. Change the locks.

Honestly, best way to do it unethically is to file a restraining order. He will have to leave the residence and you'd setup a court day but it's the legal loophole way to evict a non-payer

But yeah, for someone who leans LEFT, kicking someone out should be morally wrong right? How dare someone kick out someone who is struggling in such times.

What do you mean? People should be able to ILLEGALY migrate here for free.

Oh wait, it's only not ok if it directly impacts me in a measurable way that's in my face because I'm too ****ing clueless, idiotic, stupid and ignorant to recognize it otherwise. My country isn't me... that's someone else's problem.

:roll:

Absolutely asleep and clueless.

Here it is folks... legal immigrants are good for various reasons. Illegal immigrants are bad for various reasons. If you want to come here, great, do it. Nobody is saying people shouldn't be able to come... but you've got to do it legally otherwise you are a literal drain on the entire ****ing system.

Not being able to kick him out doesn’t mean it has to be comfortable. How much does he use that you could remove? Is the bed his? Take his bedroom door down. Take down curtains if he sleeps during the day. If you have the Easy clean windows with the golf in panes you can remove....take the ****ing window panes out. How long would he stay with no climate control?

Find the legal limits of comfort you must provide. I suspect you have to provide water but that may be it. He does have some ****ed up rights I’m sure.

Or you could just ****ing cut the guy up and throw him in the garbage.

All of my illegal cousins paid taxes and had jobs. They lived peaceful lawful lives outside of overstaying their visas. They struggled initially but they went to school and they are married now and legal, 2 of them are doctors and the other an engineer. I know this is not something that happens with all (or many) illegals, but it isn't black and white like THROW EM ALL OUT or SHOOT THEM ALL IN DA HEAD.

As for Loney, it's better to get your own place bruh. Roommates ruin experiences.

So it should be OK to overstay your visa? As for OP, it doesn't seem like OP's having a lot of "experiences" in this shack.

No I just think if they are living otherwise legally and not drains on the economy, what's the harm? I get it you want the leeches out, but they are not all leeches. Some really have no better option back home and are making the most of being here.

I would actually prefer they not leeches in, in the 1st place. I know an Arab girl in Michigan and she hates her family because all her extended family is coming here to collect handouts LEGALLY (with these shitty loopholes). She talks to me about how she hopes Trump finds a way to deport them all :lol

She’s probably a looker tbh.

It’s an empirical fact that attractive women are more likely to MAGA, while unattractive women... not so much.

At the same time, men with healthy self esteem are more likely to MAGA; men with less self esteem... well...

I think we know where this is going :lol

Most of the ugly crazies embrace the counter culture they feel they are part of by OMB’ing. They know they can’t be accepted into the mainstream on their terms so they try to belittle it as much as possible to mask any sense of rejection. If it’s not good then I don’t want to be a part of it anyways. See TheMan.
