    Angry I Got an Apartment in My Name but My "Friend" Refuses to Pay or Leave

    My question involves an eviction in the state of: California

    I got an apartment in my name but my "friend" refuses to pay or leave - I need help

    The lease ended 2 weeks ago, the "friend" that I let live over there used to work for me and is mad because I sold my company.
    I gave the 30 day notice to both the landord and the "friend" and everythign seemed to be going ok. The landlord knows that the perosn was living there.

    Now I cannot turn in the apartment because I can't get him to move out, the landlord told me that it's my problem and I need to get him evicted and pay the rent during this time.

    What do I do?? It seems crazy that I would have to pay the rent , he is not on the contract nor on any bills. I have been told that the eviction process can take up to 6 months and I will have to pay 6 rents for him. He also promised me that he will "take his time" unless I pay him 7500$ ....so he may know that it will cost me this much anyways ....

    I want to get him out but not mess my credit up

    Did you charge rent?

    The eviction process is summarized here.
