Grand theft and forgery. Those are basically the charges you mention. If you feel you are the victim of a crime, contact law enforcement and see if they can help you. I wish you well.................. David Wallin

487 is grand theft. 476 is typically for passing bad checks.

No, it's not 537 against you. 537 is obtaining goods or services from a designated facility with the intent NOT to pay. A typical 537 is a restaurant dine and dash.

If it started as a rental and he is staying beyond the time frame, you're going to have to evict him. If he broke on, it's potentially burglary or trespass.
