Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Ohio

Deadbeat Roommate

My roommate has stolen my rent money he was supposed to deposit into a checking account and has not paid the rent for two months. What legal rights do I have as far as kicking him out and getting him to give me compensation for the bills and two months rent?

1) threaten to call the cops about the theft.

2) If that does not work really do call the cops about the theft and have him prosecuted.

3) file in small claims to obtain the money back

3)Evict him in order to get him out of there.

Good luck.
