NEW UPDATE:

UPDATE:
I live in NJ. Ok the original post was a lot of information. So let me summarize where I am at. I am moving out 2 months early. I gave my landlord more than 2 months notice. There is no language in the lease about early termination. My landlord is saying we can't leave until there is a...
