I just discovered that my roomate took money that I gave her for bills, spent the money, and didn't pay the bills for that month. Obviously this is not a person I want to continue living with. I don't necessarily want to go through with police or courts if I don't have to, I just want her to pay the bill and leave. We live in an apartment and my name is on the lease but hers is not. It's a 1-year lease. What exactly is her legal standing? When I tell her to get out, how much time do I legally have to give her? I have seen some sites on the web that say 10 days is legal in Philly if you give written notice, but that seemd to be from landlord to tenant, and I wasn't sure what I could do myself. I want to be sure that I do everything correctly so that she really does legally have to leave when I say. Does anyone know the laws, and please cite some sources so I can check it out myself as well. Thanks!
