    Roommate won't pay and is leaving soon
    I own my own house and I have a roommate. He doesn't have a written contract but said that he will be moving and doesn't want to pay rent on the last month. Can I give him 24 hours to move or am I out of line asking him to move so quickly?

    ANY question on law needs to include your general locale as laws vary by area.

    No you can't give him 24 hours, but depending on your area, you may be able to give him a 3-10 day pay or quit notice.
