Can my former landlord share information?

Hi.  What rights do I have if my roommate has a boyfriend move in without my consent?  His name is not on the lease as mine is along with hers.  Besides reporting the additional, non rent-paying boyfriend whose name is not on the lease (oh, and he had a key copied so he can come […]
