Here's something you can do to make sure he knows his place in life...if at 11:00 (or some other time closely approaching the 11:59 deadline) he has not packed and does not look ready to leave, call the cops, they're probably not gonna arrive until 30 minutes after wards anyway. It'll take you a full 10-20 minutes to explain your story, and by then it'll be almost 12:00. He'll be faced with the choice to either leave immediately & send for his stuff later or be arrested. In either case you would've put the bastard in his place - where he belongs. All of this will ensure you will:
1)get the last laugh
2)make him think twice before pulling some crap like this on you again

Nice try, but there is no way that a police officer is going to get in the middle of a bunch of smartass college kids and decide to force out into the street, without a court order, someone who is clearly living there.

College kids or not, trespassing is still trespassing... and since OP has this guy's email stating his intent to move out by the deadline (11:59 pm) ON PAPER...it's binding regardless of what this [censored] roommate can come up with...if the cop won't arrest him, OP can at least get him kicked out for good...which might be just as effective in gaining the psychological edge over the [censored]
