No. If your landlord finds grounds to evict you, he or she has effectively terminated the lease for cause. You are not obligated to pay anything further, although he or she may try to keep part (or all) of your security deposit to cover any damages to the property.

If you signed a lease and did not pay a security deposit is it valid?
Signing the lease and paying the security deposit are two separate issues. Furthermore, if you don't pay the security deposit then you could be in violation of the lease terms and be evicted if the landlord chooses. Normally you pay the security deposit before you and your landlord sign the lease, or work out a payment plan that you and your landlord agree to. If your landlord agreed to allow you to skip the security deposit then that part of the lease is waived and the rest of the lease stands.

When someone in Oregon can no longer pay rent and is evicted does the remainder of the lease need to be paid?
There is more information that would not fit in the question box. I know that it can be taken to court to claim the fees, but in the lease is a part that I am unclear on. Responsibility for rent after default. If you move out, remove property in preparing to move out or give oral or written notice of intent to move out before the lease term or renewal period ends, or you are judicially evicted or move out when we demand because you have defaulted, you are still obligated to pay rent through the remainder of the lease term or renewal period until we are able to find a replacement tent. If the lease is broken would not this part of the lease be null and void?
If you co-sign a lease are you responsible for all roommates' rent even if they have their own co-signers for their leases?
When you sign a lease with multiple tenants on the lease, you are all equally responsible for any aspect of your rent. Therefore if your roommate does not pay his portion of the rent, and you are responsible for the portion he doesn't pay. If this happens then you can be able to evict your roommate or have the landlord do so. Some landlords allow you to be the main tenant on the lease and in essence be the landlord for your roommates. This is called subletting. Most apartment complexes do not allow this. But for the landlords that do allow it, it allows you to control your situation better: your roommates can pay you and then you give one check to your landlord. If your roommate doesn't pay you, you can evict him. A lease is an agreement between all of you who are in the lease and your landlord. Therefore you are all equally responsible for what happens.

As long as you'er living in the premises, you are responsible for rent, whether or not you're going through an eviction process.
