Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Georgia
Dispossession
My ex boyfriend asked me to leave the apartment we co signed the lease on mid month, and my name has been taken off the lease. He wants 1/2 the rent for the month he asked me to leave. I have intentions of giving it to him, but not immediately. Can he take me to small claims court?

Re: Dispossession
Certainly. Anyone can file a law suit with or without cause. However, even in this situation, it sounds like he would have cause to file a claim for the rent. So, you should pay it within a reasonable amount of time.
