In the case of a tenancy where the landlord claims that the tenant has not paid and the tenant insists that he has- on whom does the burden of proof rest?
The burden is on the tenant to prove that they paid.
Can a landlord be sued for locking out a tenant that is not on a lease?
Yes. But, you used the word 'tenant'. If some kind of tenancy has been established, then the landlord cannot lock the tenant out. Signing a lease is not the only way to establish a tenancy. Simply accepting rent money makes the payer a tenant, if it is clearly in exchange for use of the premises. So, if he is a tenant, no. If he is merely an 'occupant', or guest of the tenant, probably.
What if I don't have a written residential rental agreement?

Can you landlord have you sign a lease and then say you did not get the apartment?
No. A lease is a legally binding contract, which obligates both the landlord and tenant to a tenancy for the term of the lease. If you and the landlord both signed a lease, and the landlord refuses to give you occupancy of the property, you need to see a landlord-tenant attorney or tenant's rights group immediately!
What are the differences between a periodic tenancy and a tenancy at will?
A periodic tenancy has a fixed term with specific start and end dates, while a tenancy at will has no fixed term and can be terminated by either the landlord or tenant at any time.
What is a statutory lease?
Statutory tenancy means that by law one is a tenant for the property. In most states statutory tenancy occurs when the landlord hands the keys over to the tenant, allowing him to move into the property. No lease is required to be signed for this to happen. And the person remains a statutory tenant as long as he pays his rent and the landlord accepts it.
What is the difference between tenancy at will and tenancy for a fixed period?
A tenancy for a fixed period means that the lease has been executed between the landlord and tenant, and the lease will expire after the term ends. If there is no lease, or the lease has expired and the tenant is still allowed to pay rent and remain on the property, then this becomes a tenancy at will. This means that the terms of the original lease is no longer effective or binding, and that the tenancy is now subject to landlord and tenant laws which govern tenancy. A tenancy at will may terminate at any time as long as proper notice is given according to the laws. For example, a month-to-month tenancy may end after 30 days of notice is given to either side, and such 30 days notice must be given before the next rent is due. A week to week tenancy may terminate after one week of notice: one week before the next rent is due. This is also true with regard to rent increases. Furthermore, landlord and tenancy laws regulate other aspects of tenancy, including obligations of the landlord and the tenant. For example, a landlord may not enter a tenant property without proper notice; and the tenant has five days to pay his rent before it becomes past-due.
