If they asked you on the application, and you lied, then, yes, technically, that is a lease violation that gives the landlord the right to terminate the lease. But, you make a very good point - why would they bother at this point? Sometimes, big management companies have hardline policies because they don't want word to get out that they're soft.

Evicting you would be a pain, and not really worth it. They might be smart to write you a letter saying that they will not be renewing the lease when it's up.

Real property such as a vehicle or house is not dischargeable in bankruptcy. The debt must be reaffirmed, paid or satisfied or the property forfeited to the lender. That being the case, the person would not be entitled to a clear vehicle or land title from the lender simply because the debt was included in bankruptcy.

The legal presumption is that the debt is still owed because it was jointly incurred.
