A mate rented his house, references all checked out and employed. When he told her that he wanted to move back in (after the 6 months term of the lease) and gave her a couple of months’ notice if she wanted) she immediately stopped paying rent

When he finally got rid of her he had to take her to court for the back rent – she claimed that she had left the 3ish months back rent on the kitchen table and that my mate had taken it
However the judge must have heard it all before (he asked here to show bank statements showing the withdrawals or any other proof which she couldn’t so was ordered to pay
