the deposit was from when I lived at a duplex from Dec of 06-July 30 of 07. I was on the lease. And I lived there.

The deposit im talking about has nothing to do with me "almost" moving off sagewood.

P this is what you do 1) sue the landlord for the money and lawyer fees. He can't just give your money to someone else, that is illegal I'm pretty sure. 2) We roll deep up to san marcos and **** that dude up

what a dick

chargerR/T

bro you can't just give someone's money (or stuff for that matter) to someone if the rightful owner didn't tell them to. That would be like if you bought a car, and signed all the papers but couldn't pick it up till the next day and I went up and was like, yeah We are really good friends and I will give him the car and then I don't are you saying the dealer has no responsibility? I know we are talking about 200 dollars and not something really expensive but it's the same idea.

Find out from the landlord, EXACTLY how the deposit was returned; cash, business check, cashier's check, etc...

Let him know that your "friend" refuses to give you your money and that you partially hold him responsible. He should be pretty co-operative in helping you get your money from that POS you used to call a roommate.

Chances are that it was some form of check, and if you were on the lease, your name SHOULD have been on that check. If it was, then Mukyluk has a great point, that ******* probably forged your signature.

Find out from the landlord

You have NO idea what you are talking about.




There is so much misinformation in this thread, it is pathetic. The only chance Donahue has of getting his hundred dollars back is if his old roommate gives it back, otherwise forget about it. There is more to the story I bet......

Donohue96M6Z28

its actually $200...

and there is nothing more to the story. Colby thinks that since I didnt help clean, BECAUSE I WAS TOLD I DIDNT HAVE TO. that he should then get my $200.

and that is rediculous that you dont think that the landlord is somewhat responsible. he gave MY money to someone else.

chargerR/T

no sir YOU have NO idea what you are talking about. I am donohue's roommate now and was right there when everything was going down. this is the whole story and yes, he does have legal action he can take against the landlord bc the landlord had no right to give his money away to anyone that was not him without patrick's consent. He can sue the landlord for his $200 and his lawyer/court fees and he WILL win!

2 SLOW

then tell him to do it.....and let me know how much money he waste.

the landlord is free and clear, he didn't knowingly do anything wrong. the ex roommate knowingly spent money that wasn't his, he is the guilty party.

just spoke with chargers moms BF(who is a lawyer)

he said that if the landlord gave colby a check with ALL 3 of our names on it. THEN the landlord is in the clear. and Colby forged my signature.

But if my name was not on the check or if he gave them cash. Then he is still liable.

2 SLOW

Your name was not on the check or he gave them cash.


Good luck bro, the way you described it, if you went to court....how would you get your money back? Wouldn't the utility and cleaning charges take care of all the deposit?

Donohue96M6Z28

iTrader: (64)

once again.. I dont owe anyone anything for the utitilities. the last months utilities was $90per person. Our ~1XX deposit that we left PER PERSON PAYS hte last months utilities. So that was paid with my deposit. I didnt directly pay it, but my UTILITY deposit did pay it.


On a side note..

I just talked to the landlord and he siad that he made the check to kyle. And he said most of the time with dealing with college students thats how they ask to get the deposit back.

I said that I never agreed to that, and that he had ways of contacting me if he didnt have my forwarding address.
And I said that when I moved back in dec/jan I was planning on going through him again bc he was extremely good at fixing things the same day. But I said that me not getting my deposit back kind of turned me off with getting a place through him.

He then said. That he'll make it right. Either by giving me $200 out of his own pocket or by getting it from them. And that he would get back with me.

2 SLOW

So now you are potentially screwing the landlord out of $200 because you pissed off a roommate?????


No worries....if you rent from him again I'm sure he'll get it back



EDIT: wait, he made the check to Kyle????? the one you are still friends with....then how did Colby spend it???? hhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Donohue96M6Z28

iTrader: (64)

you are a ******* dumb ****. I screwed the landlord bc I pissed off a roommate?? Colby is a ******. Our rent was $800 even. Instead of paying $267(like kyle and I would do). he'd pay $266, bc it wasnt "actually" 267. With all the utilitiy bills. If it was $213.24. He'd pay exactly 1/3 of it. he'd pay 71.08. He saw a way for hiim to get easy money bc he knew that I moved away for the semester and then he tried to come up with every excuse to keep it. "umm... you had more parties"... WTF?? who gives a ****.

by the way... it was the landlords mistake. he shoudl have made sure it was cool with me.

2 SLOW

you said the landlord made the check out to Kyle though........




how is this Colbys fault?

Donohue96M6Z28

iTrader: (64)

It was in kyles name... Kyle took his $200 out and then colby had the rest. As far as kyle knew. Colby was going to give to me. Colby and I were "friends", just not good friends.

2 SLOW

some friend Kyle is.....there is more to this story, are you going to tell it or not?


Kyle didn't have your number to let you know he had your money?


edit: I hope this goes to court so the judge can get a good laugh
