You have a lease now my wife has passed away can you break lease?

Technically, if you are in a lease then you cannot break it or the landlord can keep your security deposit and last month's rent. He can even sue you for loss of revenue up to the time the apartment is rent it out or the lease has expired, whichever comes first. That is the technical rule. But now here's the compassion issue: if your wife has passed away and there is compelling reason to break the lease, I am sure you can work something out with your landlord in which he can cancel the lease for you. But the landlord is usually not obliged to do this.
