The lease probably contains clauses outlining termination procedures. If there are no procedures, or the procedures are unsatisfactory, contact the leasing company to negotiate a satisfactory termination. If the equipment is defective, contact the manufacturer and request a buyback.
Depends on the laws of your state. Some states do have little-known statutes that say that if the tenant is not given a copy (say, within 30 days) then the lease is not binding. Most states, though, it doesn't matter. And, it's very difficult to prove that the landlord didn't try to deliver it.
Yes you have to follow the terms of the lease. You are however entiltled to a copy of it, and I owuld ask for it. Some leases will include a clause that gives the renter the option to break the lease early if 30 written notice is given. Some rental companies will also allow a lease to be broken if they are given enough notice to rerent the place before the current residents vacate. I would get a copy of the lease and see how it reads and if any of these options are available to you!
No you would need that you should tell a lawyer
The landlord must give you a copy of your lease within 30 days. There is usually a paper you both sign saying you received it. If it is lost you are not liable to stay in the apartment. On the other hand, this also means the landlord can evict you or raise your rent on you without warning because of no proper documentation.
Most states require you to notify the landlord in writing 30 days before the lease expires. Some leases are worded to automatically renew. If it is not worded to do so it usually is considered a month to month rental after it expires. You are still required to give 30 days notice, however.
If a copy of the lease agreement is made available to the accountant, this should be easily determined.
No, there is no requirement to have a copy. If you want to enforce the contract, having a copy is important. And it should be a signed copy to take to court.
In most states a lease is a private contract by two individuals. Unless it is mandated by law, in most states do not require that either party keep a copy of this agreement after the lease is fullfilled. So if you need a copy of your lease, you must have it in your possession before you take legal action.
In the UK, you have around 7-14 day cooling off period, during which time you are able to cancel your contract and receive a full refund, or a refund less the administration fees. The answer to this question depends on how long it has been since you signed the lease, and the terms of the lease, as well as your local laws that govern this kind of contract. I would be tempted to hazard a guess that because there IS a copy of the paperwork floating around somewhere, it is partly your responsibility to chase it up. It may be viewed that since you signed the contract, you are liable for payments and have entered into a contractual agreement. Chase it up as soon as possible and you may save yourself a lot of hassle further down the line.
An equipment lease is ideal for equipment that is used frequently and may incur regular maintenance costs. An example of an ideal piece of equipment that one can lease is a copy machine. Copy machines are used every day of the week and usually all day long. These machines require regular maintenance and incur recurring expenses for consumables. If one utilizes an equipment lease for a copy machines, typically the company that owns it will regularly service the machine in order to keep it functioning optimally. They will also come out to refill the toner. Usually, the customer simply is responsible for refilling the paper and the rest of the responsibility lies with the owner of the machine.
Proof of residence for a tenant would be a copy of the lease, or landlord tenant agreement. Any type of written agreement will suffice as a proof of residence.
Call or write the landlord asking for a copy of your lease.

I hope you have a copy of the original lease agreement. What she did is not legal.
i need a copy of a home rental agreement
No. Whether or not your landlord has a copy of the lease, he is still bound by the lease as a contract. I suggest you photocopy your copy of the lease, and hand it to him (or send it by registered mail, so he can't say he didn't receive it)! If he still refuses to abide by the conditions of the lease, contact your local Landlord & Tenant Commission for advice.
Show a copy of the contract to a lawyer. If the terms and agreements have been broken he or she will tell you how to proceed.
