My roommate Ka never paid rent on time and would go live at her friend's house for months at a time. She informed me that she paid Jan and Feb rent and led me to believe she had paid all of her late fees. March 4th I got a call from the landlord stating she paid part of Jan rent and no Feb or March rent and none of her late fees and unless they were paid he was going to evict both of us. I paid her fees and then signed her off of the lease at the landlord's suggestion. I have tried and tried to contact her and she would not pick up the phone or answer texts. Finally I sent her one on the day that I wrote her off of the lease informing her that I wrote her off, changed the locks, and she needed to come get all of her things. It has been almost a month and she has come by three times, stayed as long as she wanted, picked through her things and took what she wanted, and left when she wanted. She went to the house today without contacting me first while no one was home with the cops and texted me stating the cops told her I was illegally hold her things. She has made no attempt to pay me back anything. What should I do? Do I continue to hold her things? Can I charge her a storage fee? Can I collect anything besides back rent and late fees that I paid for her?
Please help! She has threatened me and my belongings and I want her out of my life but I also want my money back!!!
