How do we get rid of an unwanted roommate in Los Angeles
It will be easy to get rid of the unwanted roommate if the person is not listed on the lease. According to California Law, subtenants deal directly with the leaseholder and not the landlord. That means if the person is not on the lease, people named on the list will be responsible for him.
To remove a subtenant, you must give that person at least a thirty day notice. Once that person received the notice, he/she has until the end of the moth to move out. If the person involved doesn't comply with the deadline, you can go to the court and file for unlawful detainer.
