Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Virginia
Room mate refused to pay cable and phone bill
I live in a two bed room apartment
with a friend. I signed up for cable and
a telephone service in my name but
when the bill came, my room mate
said, I did not did not tell him before I
signed up for those services and
besides he doesn't use the home
phone. Every body calls him on his cell
phone. Can I take legal action to make
him pay? Thanks

Re: Room mate refused to pay cable and phone bill
Sure, you can always sue, but I doubt that you would be able to recover much of anything from your suit in small claims court---and you might well lose the roommate in the process and end up having to pay the entire rent yourself.
(For whatever it's worth, however, your rommmate's position on this issue is not reasonable and you can tell him that I said so.)
