my roomate and i moved into a house in middle march and a lease for 1 year. now she decided a few weeks ago to enroll at a school an hour and a half away, thought she could commute but quickly found out gas isnt worth it. so shes wanting to leave. which is fine.. BUT she only told me she needs to move last week... and i know the sooner the better for her.. but i have no one to move in. i have a friend who can move in around october and be able to afford it, but my roomate said she needs to pay her the deposits back. is that true? since she is putting me in the bind and breaking the lease, cuz our landlord said he would be willing to move the lease into my name. she said she may cancel the lease and get her money back before someone else moves in and she loses her money. would she even get the deposit back anyway if she cancels the lease? because then she puts me out.. i'd have to move and i dont have the money for that!!! and she has this idea that we'll get the deposit back if they do a walkthru.. which im pretty sure isnt true they do that if you finish your lease.. not 4 months into it! im just curious as to what im entitled to legally and what i can say i do or dont owe. thanks!
