Simply put, you can't.  As a former law enforcement offer from Oregon, I can tell you they don't make it as easy as they should.  However, there are plenty of resources available to you on-line to obtain such information.  Ultimately, you will have to pay to get the information you want.

You will always owe them until you pay.\n\nYou should not be thrown in prison/jail for inability to pay rent.\n\nThey may be able to garnish future wages if they can find you.\n\nWhy don't you mail them $10 / month until it's paid, then you are showing that you are trying to pay off the debt.

Its a very simple solution but 99.99% of people never take the time to do this. I was in the military for 20+yrs, Learned the hard way ounce and paid for it.\n\nGet a cheap camera and take pictures of the place before you move or as your moving in. Heck, nowdays they have video cams that are even better, a photo or video is worth more than a thousand words! This will help or hurt cause the proof is in the photos, where there is or not damages.\n\nOften cigarette burns on the carpet, stains, rutcuts into the carpet in the bedroom from wear and tear. Water damage under the sink from previous situatuion can be documented as not yours, ceilen damage spots or even holes on the walls that have been patched. Established urine stains from previous animals(cats or dogs) even where the apts doesn't allow animals.\n\nRemember that most places have good will but the bottom line is the cost to refurbish the apt for the next renter, so clean before you move out, that's always a plus, even have the manager come inspect before the move. They might be able to say this and that needs to be done or we have to pay to have it done and will go againist your deposit. \n\nI have 15 houses that I rent on long term leases and I do that to each unit, and have made it a point to record and save till the next move, then record after they move incase we have to discuss less than the deposit. I always evaluate the house, did they even try to clean, is the rubish out, the bathroom cleaned, kitchen stove,frigerater cleaned. Remember someone has to do the clean and make ready and obviously be paid for it, so it comes from your deposit. Most will deduct 30% of deposit just cause for wear and tear and expected cost to clean, alot will return all if no damages but the unit is left clean and can get rented with few problems.\n\nAsk yourself, would you move into the apt ~~right now as is, and if your answer is no, then take time to make it so. I'm not talking about painting the walls and shampoo the carpet, just simple cleaning can go a long ways. I'm a land lord of sorts and after you leave I'm almost sure never to see you again so why such I listen to you, I'll take your deposit without regard when I open the door and see trash and whatever, you didn't even vacum or take the trash out. Might be nice for you to at least wipe the glass windows if you have the time, effort brings about good will.\n\nMost all cities have departments to deal with renter disputes, maybe the local BBB has it, most places need your good word of mouth  to keep going. I have a waiting list for my houses, never empty for 15 days, that's what it takes me to prepare for the next renter, my video cam at the ready. I have even made copies for the new renter if they request it(hahahhaha) its a great practice for both. I want you to rent from me again if you decide to come back one day, I will remember the trash and crap you left behind.\n\nThose verticle blinds, hardly an issue of cost but just think of the piture of them, it could have establish its worth of condition on move in day. If in disbute could warrent the deteration from common use due to where they were and how often they were walked through, heck you might of been able to replace them with some from Walmart and saved you alot of monies?\n\nGolden rule : Photos,,,photos,,,photos,,, and even better is a video cam of the apartment condition on move in day!

Go to the link below and get a copy of his credit report.  See if there is any hits on it.\n\nWithout looking at the lease I can't say if he is legally obligated to pay.  \n\nAlso, many landlords have their own "local" credit reporting systems through a "landlords association".  That may be why you are not able to get into another apartment in your area.    \n\nIf you are denied credit (or a lease) due to a credit report, the law says they must supply you with the source, and you are allowed a free copy of that report so you can dispute anything in it.

- Check his credit\n- Offer to give him a deposit to hold the place (pay by check, get a receipt for maximum proof), pay him the rest after you have the keys and signed lease in your hands\n- Have an attorney look at the lease before you sign it\n- Don't give him any money until you have a lease in your hand signed by him and you, the keys in your pocket, and have checked the place out\n- Make sure the terms of the lease, month to month, yearly, etc. are spelled out\n- Make sure you now if you are supposed to give written notice if you're leaving\n- Save every scrap of paper on the transactions\n\nAlso, do you like him?  Always make an effort to rent from people who you can be friendly with, and pursue a friendship with the guy during the whole lease.  Why?  This can save your asss in more ways than I can list here!  A friend can find ways to help you, an enemy can always find ways to screw you!

This is a tough situation and there is no really good solution.\n\nRemember that what someone can "legally" do is not really a practical limit on what they may actually do. Worse still, you can have all sorts of legal rights but if the only way to exercise them is to go to court then the solution may be worse than the problem.\n\nThe only thing is really to get the stuff out right now. If the apartment is in the other person's name then she's not going to get any immediate help from the legal system.\n\nEDIT: From another question that you posted I'm now unsure if this is a room mate situation or a landlord-tenant case. Please clarify. It affects the answer.

Not enough. The laws are very much in favor of the rentee. There are some recourses but they take a long time to implement.

I live in California and I got my first apartment when I was 19.  I had a really good paying job so I didn't really struggle.  By law they have to pay 2 utilities.  Usually it's water and trash. What I thought was kind of weird was that there was a time when my rent was late, and I had to pay a 60 dollar late fee and write a statement as to why my rent was late.  I thought that was a bit much.  Also, If I had someone over for more than 3 days, I had to get permission from the landlord and stuff. It's pretty easy if you are tight with your money for the first couple of months so you can see exactly how much your utilities are

Each state has very specific steps to follow...You can't evict until you get an Eviction Order/Judgment from the Court.  You have to get a hearing, then you have to serve notice of the hearing (via process server) and then you get the hearing.\n\nThen if they don't leave, you have the constable execute the Order, if they don't leave -- the constable calls the police to enforce it.\n\nYou should google your state and landlord/tenant laws to make sure you follow the steps correctly.  If you make a procedurial error, the whole clock has to start over again.\n\nDon't be intimidated though, I evicted my tenant in 20 days start to finish all by myself - I created the Notices on Word and got the Arizona landlord's handbook.\n\nThe key is to start the legal clock ASAP.  It cost me about $200 altogether and I requested that amount in addition to the back rent and late fees.

Go to the RRA... Renters Rights Association. They will handle it! They eat that kinda crap up... I know cuz I have been an apartment manager b4 and the owners where total asses... there was so many things i couldnt do after the tentants were promised things by the owners then went back on em... good luck

You can't, best advice find someone with a home with an extra room and hope they'll rent at that rate.

if you are renter, and not a owner there is nothing you can do, other than move. there are some non-smoking apartments, they are just a little harder to find.
