If contracts don't mean anything, how do these things work in hotels?


Hotel/motel arrangements are, by nature, short-term. With residency, oral
contracts can carry a lot of weight in a court of law. Both parties entered
into an agreement. A lot of it is his word against her word, but there are
facts that are indisputable: She took money from him and gave him a key to
the residence. And that is a contract.
Don't get me wrong, it sucks that he's doing this. Which is why I wouldn't
want to see her get burned any more than she already is.
