    Roomates and business partners
    My situation: between jobs and doing odd jobs to survive.

    My business partner needed a room for about 4 months Oct-Feb, he made an offer of $500.00 per month his schedule cause him to be on the road most of the time.

    Two months rent was paid (not on time) the last two months he informed me he was losing his job (not lost) and he could not pay the full amount. He stated "I thought you were doing me a favor and I only had to pay in full if I could" We had no written contract just his original verbal commitment to pay $500.00 dollars per month.

    He has since moved out March back to his ex-wife, and we are still in business with many problems...

    Q: Is there anything I can do to re-coupe about $300 still due?
    Q: If you change your verbal commitment is your original verbal commitment still forceable?
