I was recently evicted from a room I was renting for having an unauthorized guest overnight. I did not have a written lease agreement and my landlady told me prior to moving in that I could have guests over occasionally but this time I was denied permission and had a guest overnight anyway, mainly due to extenuating circumstances (bad weather and car trouble, which I explained to her wen I requested that the guest stay over). The guest stayed over on a Wednesday night and my landlady told me on Thursday I had to move on Friday by noon and that I had to forfeit the rent for the remaining 3 weeks of the month ($700) as well as my last month's rent ($825). There lease was month to month and there was no written lease agreement. If anybody knows if and how I can get my money back I would greatly appreciate it.
