Can the cosigner for a car get off the lease and do they have rights to sell the car?
No one is released from contract unless the lender has some mitigating reason to allow it. This is usually death of a borrower. Other than that, the only legal way to "get off of a lease" is to pay the loan off. In most circumstances, but check your state law, the cosigner has the same rights and responsibilities as the primary signer. The lender is not going to referee your domestic disputes. Probably best to consult a contract lawyer. A co-signer has no legal rights to a vehicle unless his or her name is on the title. The cosigner is responsible for the entire amount of the loan if the primary borrower defaults; and cannot be removed from the lending agreement until the loan is paid in full or is refinanced without said cosigner being a participant.

There is no legal route to get out of a typical 12 month lease agreement (I assume this is what you are referring too). The best way is to explain your situation to the landlord of why you feel you need to get out of the lease agreement and see if they show any sympathy and let you out.
