Re: Unauthorized tenant

it depends. Does your lease specifiy sole occupancy? The courts generally won't allow a landlord to prevent you form ahving overnight guests on occassion, but a permanent resident is a different questions, particularly if your utilities are included. I would need to see the actaul lease before I could give you a 'better' answer. Feel free to contact me at for a free consult.
