Only the person who signed is a party to the contract. The tenant who didn't sign is not bound by the lease.

If a co-tenant does not pay the rent on an apartment can the other tenant evict him?

When more than one person signed the lease each is responsible for the full amount of the rent if the other refuses to pay their share. The ability to evict the co-tenant who won't pay their share varies under different jurisdictions. In some cases only the landlord can evict a tenant. You should contact a landlord-tenant agency in your area or an attorney who specializes in tenant issues.


Can a landlord evict one tenant not the other?

He could, but it depends on the wording of the lease. Normally there is only one tenant on a lease: the rest of the legal occupants are considered part of the household. A landlord can kick out the one tenant and create a new lease for another occupant, making him the tenant.


Can a landlord give a tenant 14 days to move when they have a signed lease?

Normally the landlord must give at least a 30-day notice before the expiration of the lease that he will not renew it, so the tenant must leave. There is one exception: if the tenant is in violation of the terms of the lease, the landlord may terminate the lease and give such short notice for the tenant to leave.


Do I have any recourse if I was evicted for having an unauthorized pet at a no pets allowed property where at least one other tenant has a pet and was not evicted?

Probably not. The other tenant's situation has nothing to do with you.


What if a tenant starts a problem with a other tenant can the landlord kick 1outyou and not the other?

It depends. The most common arrangement for tenants is for them to be "tenants in common," that is, equal parties to the lease. At common law, tenants in common have a duty not to infringe on the rights of the other tenants to access to the property. If one tenant kicked the other out in this arrangement, that would certainly be impermissible and the removed tenant could sue. On the other hand, if one tenant has some superior right to the property, for instance if one is the party to the lease with the landlord and the other tenant is a sublessee, then the party to the lease may have the right to kick out the sublessee. Keep in mind, this is at common law. Many states modify the common law by statute. You should consult a lawyer in your state to determine the correct answer for your state.


What is a statutory lease?

Statutory tenancy means that by law one is a tenant for the property. In most states statutory tenancy occurs when the landlord hands the keys over to the tenant, allowing him to move into the property. No lease is required to be signed for this to happen. And the person remains a statutory tenant as long as he pays his rent and the landlord accepts it.


If two roommate signed a lease and only one of these want to move out according to a letter what should landlord answer?

May depend on what state you reside in. Here, in Wisconsin, if I receive a letter from one tenant, I would send the remaking tenant a letter stating they are now responsible for all rent. I would also have the remaining tenant sign a new lease. Hope this is helpful.


Is a lease valid if the tenant is not given a copy in fl?

Chances are that the answer is yes. I mean if a lease is valid when it's done orally, and no one has a copy, then if you signed it that's it.

When did John Hancock sign the Declaration of Independence?

John Hancock signed both versions of the Declaration of Independence. He signed the first one on July 4, 1776. That was the version that no other delegates signed. Then he signed the second version on or about August 22, 1776. That is the version that most, but not all, of the other delegates signed and the one everyone thinks was signed on July 4th, but was not.
