This is not how things work. There's no legal proceeding that would allow you more time. When the lease is terminated, that's the end and you must leave. If you remain, the HOA and/or the landlord can file an eviction complaint against you. The LAST thing you want is an eviction complaint... View More

You would need to sue your "friend" in small claims court for breach of contract and specific performance of the agreement. It will cost you about $100 to file and serve your friend, but if you win the case the cost will be part of the judgment against him. I suggest you go to the small... View More

The rationale behind this is that responding to a bar complaint is considered part of an attorney's professional responsibility... View More

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. You ask for someone to call you. No one here can call you.
