Abusive Co Signers Rights To Stay ? (If Any?)
I am considering adding "no boyfriend/Girlfriend" unless bound by strong bond circumstances such as "baby on the way and planning for an upcoming wedding" etc to my list of do not rent factors. In my first 2 years of renting I have had 3 move outs. 2 were bf/gf breakups that ended end death threats ; abuse ; etc and these are on high end rentals. I got notified of one of these today. The bf (co-signer) is sending death threats to the gf ; she moved out scared for her life and filed a restraining order.
I have no clue how to proceed from a legality standpoint in terms of moving on and what protected rights (if any) the bf has to stay if he wants and whether or not I am simply allowed to charge her our agreed upon early term fee from our lease and move on.
