If the tenant does not leave by the end of the fifth day, the writ of possession authorizes the sheriff to physically remove and lock the tenant out, and seize (take) the tenant's belongings that have been left in the rental unit.

Can your Landlord evict your roommate when she knew he was there?
The answer depends on whether or not your roommate is allowed under the lease. Virtually all residential leases contain a clause that restricts who can live in the apartment.

If you have questions about your lease, I suggest you contact a tenant's rights organization in your area. They can read your particular lease and offer guidance on your state's landlord-tenant laws. Alternatively, you can contact an landlord-tenant law attorney (look for one who offers "free consultations" in your local phone book).

If they decide to go and rent out one of the other rooms when you are already living there, then they can only do that if you and your landlord are at a mutual agreement. Otherwise, they cannot. Don't worry, as long as you are paying the rent on time, they can't evict you for disagreeing with their plans. And if they try, you can sue them for it.

If he does not want to fix the elevator, he may decide not to rent your unit, and ask you to leave.

What can you do if my landlord doesn't set rules to keep problems from happening between tenants?
Basically, the landlord does not have to set specific rules to address problems between tenants. If one tenant is having problems with another tenant, this is treated as a problem between neighbors, which may be handled in civil court or criminal court depending on what type of problem is occurring. However, the landlord does have the duty to provide a safe, decent, and sanitary home for his tenant to live in. If the landlord fails to do this, the tenant may move out and break his lease under the constructive eviction clause. Normally a standard lease will have a clause which states that tenant must not conduct himself in any manner that poses a threat to the peace of the community or the property. This clause often includes the landlord has the right to evict him if the police are called and he is arrested for such breach.
