I'm seeking legal advice regarding a situation involving my niece's living arrangements in Los Angeles. Currently, she shares an apartment on a month-to-month lease with two roommates. She intends to move out and has duly provided a 30-day notice to the apartment complex.
However, they are insisting that she can only be removed from the lease if all roommates sign a document allowing her to leave. The roommates are refusing to do so because she's in a turbulent situation with them.
This requirement is possibly in conflict with tenant rights or housing laws. It's puzzling how she can be bound by a month-to-month lease yet be restricted from moving out, especially when complying with the stipulated notice period and not bound by a longer-term lease agreement.
I'd appreciate any insights or guidance on how to navigate this situation within the confines of the law.
