Alright, according to the landlord if I pay 1/2 the rent or more each month for the next few months they'll only go after Roommate A for the remainder.
Now here's the new issue:
Issue: Roommate A had his March rent check to Landlord come back as NSF. Landlord won't let me pay my share of April rent without a certified check or money order.
On top of this: recently got a utility bill from Landlord for gas covering 3 months because Roommate A is apparently so horrible with his finances that his account with the gas company got dropped.
Alright. Think, think, think.
Solution:
Roommate A needs to give me CASH $430 to cover half of March rent ($405), half of the late fee ($20) and the cost to me for a certified check ($5).
On top of that he needs to give me $111.16 CASH to cover his third of utility bill.
Roommate B needs to give me $111.15 CASH to cover his third of utility bill.
Summary:
Roommate A to me: $541.16 CASH.
Roommate B to me: $111.15 CASH
Me to Landlord: $1163.47 certified check/money order for my half of March & April rent, and utility bill.
And the landlord can do what he needs with Roommate A about the $830 for his half of March & April rent and all future shares of rent.
I think I'll be headed to Student Legal Services on Monday if the roommates do not give me cash over the weekend.
