Paranoid Schizophrenic tenant. NEED to evict but trying to avoid a discrimination suit

[James Kurzdorfer]

Hey guys, I own 3 bedroom townhome and rent the rooms out individually. I had been living there up until Dec. and had always had 1 or 2 roommates living with me at any given time for the past 6 years. I've had my share of experiences, both good and bad but since fully moving out of my house things have become nightmarish.

A new guy moved into my master bedroom in Dec. when I left becoming 1 of 3 people living there. Nobody knew anybody else and even though the lease duration was 1 year everybody was fine with that because there was a verbal (learned my lesson there!) agreement that after 3 months they could leave without question or if I wanted, they had to leave. Basically it was just to avoid putting people together for a year if they didn't get along. At the beginning of Jan. the particular tenant here told me via email that he had a microchip implanted in his head and that the other guys in the house were using their computers to torture him, manipulate his dreams and cause him to hallucinate. As a result he was withholding rent, I went to talk to him and couldn't believe the stories I was hearing. This guy is 31, is on full disability and had a 'mental breakdown' 2 years ago according to his mom (contacted her from the background check I ran on him.) I finally coerced him to give me the rent payment only to find out a few weeks later he had placed a stop on the check. His mom had told me in our first conversation she would wire me the money if rent became a problem while I waited for the three month mark to roll around. She came through but things have only escalated with this guy. He appearantly has no history of violence just "a tendency to make people feel uncomfortable" in his mom's words.

Fearing that the three months would come around and that he would refuse to leave I had him sign an intent to vacate form which states that he fully understands the binding nature of the form and that I can commit his room to a new tenant as soon as the day after he vacates. One thing I'm wondering is if he doesn't move out on the 28th, is that form enough to get him out? He sent me an email last night telling me that he KNOWS my house is bugged and wired to monitor him and that he has the right to remove such wires. Would that be enough in the eyes of a judge to evict him since I fear he may cause damage to my property and that way if he doesn't follow the intent to vacate, I'll have the eviction to get him out? I'm really concerned because the other guy there will probably take off if the nut job isn't out very soon. I spoke with his mom the other day and she said he started a new med and it almost sounds like it has made him even more paranoid- he's accusing me of working for the CIA, swears there's someone crawling around in the attic and is adamant even more than ever that the other guy there is attacking him with his computer.

I worry that this guy (who seems to know his stuff with regards to rights) might try to bring a discrimination suit against me. Does it sound like I've got enough on him to get him out pretty easily? Thanks so much for the input everybody!
