What is the name of your state? California
One of my former roomates and ex-girlfriend recently sued me claiming that she lent me $550 for a apartment that we lived in together.
In a different situation she was on the lease for the house that we were living in currently and moved out 5 days before rent was due. Leaving me and my roomate to cover her portion of the rent as well as utilities. The amount owed to me was around $400 and to my roomate was around $450. We weren't going to pursue any action against her but she served me papers claiming I owed her $550. My question is we are know going to counter sue her but I am named in the original suit as the defendant and she is the plantiff, can my other roomate be added to the case as defendant #2 to recover the money that had to pay to cover her moving out and breaking her contract lease?
