Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

First, you were not arrested by your former roommate. Your former roommate may have called the police and alleged that you did something illegal, but the police are the only ones who can arrest you. Second, your landlord may have the right to evict you based upon a few differnt theories, including nuisance, violation of other tenants' right of peaceful and quiet enjoyment of their units, and if you have written rules, for violation of the complex rules. No, there are no rules which protect you as the victim of a robbery from being evicted.
