Years ago I moved into an apartment with a boyfriend. He moved out, his name was removed from the lease and I lived there for a few years alone. A couple years ago, the building was sold to new owners and has a new property management firm operating it. The old property management company is out of business. When I moved out recently, the new management sent the security deposit check and made it out to both of us. I don't speak to him and he lives across the country now. Even though the electronic copy of the lease only has my signature on it now, they claim that the check still comes to both of us. If they don't change it, I won't be able to cash the check and get my deposit back. This is a very unique case and I can't find any information about it on any forum. Does anybody know of a way to resolve this? The check was written with an "and" not an "or" so it has to be signed by both of us.
