Evict me or give me my deposit back

[Luke H.]

Hello all,

A tenant recently lost his job and the other person that provided income went away. After he missed rent he mentioned he just got a new job and would pay, after a week, he stopped answering my calls so I went to the property.  He was there and said I should evict him, he wasn't leaving, and he knows the laws and if I want him to leave I should give him is deposit back. He says, that over the last 10 years, he replaced ceiling fans, and doors (all UN-authorized and news to me) so that should be considered rent money. He is also now stating that there is issues with plumbing, and leaking roof (all new to me).  He was always doing UN-authorized repairs and then asking me to at least pay for materials.

I put the 3 day notice and filed for eviction today. 

Advice for the court date?
