What is the name of your state? IL and/or FL
In 2004 I lived with my then boyfriend in an apartment. We were both on the lease. We both agreed that we would break our lease and I would move up to Illinois until I gave birth to our child. Then after baby was born move back down to FL with him. We moved out June 2004 and I left for IL. In Oct 04 I found out he was cheating on me and we split up me staying in IL him in FL. To the sueing questions. Because we broke out lease we owe the money for the rest of the lease and it all came out to about $4000. They only sent ME to collections. The collections agent I deal with now when I make the payments to pay this off said I would have to take X to small claims court and sue him for half of what they charged for breaking the lease. What are my chances of winning this case. Also would I have to go back down to FL to sue him over this? Thanks for any advice given.
