I have a 12 month lease. I got a roommate that is subleasing from me. We have a written agreement between each other that only states that either party can give 30 days if they wish to end agreement and that we split utilities 50/50.

We have had several problems. He gave his verbal 30 day notice a few days ago in a fit of rage after a disagreement that concerned damages to the house and to my health. I said that was a good idea and I would prorate next month for them. I have noticed that he is not packing his stuff (he has a tremendous amount of possessions). It makes me think he thinks it will just blow over.

If they do not move out when the 30 day notice arrives, I can go through the eviction route?

Does anyone have a link for a 5 day eviction in Oklahoma?

When I go to small claims to get rent if they don’t pay I can also get utility payments? I can also get any repair money for damages to the house? Are there any good links that show the proper way to make the best case? If I win, does collection actually happen (garnishment of wages, ect)?

Thanks in advance to anyone that would like to answer these.

You need to be sure, to give him an official 30 day notice to move out, since under your agreement you are allowed to do that, so in causehe does not move under his statement, you have given him official notice to act on.
