A: From the brief description of the facts, if you did not sign the lease, in other words you are not one of the designated tenants, then you have no obligation and cannot be sued. If however you signed as a guarantor under the lease then you can be sued for the past due rent obligation. I would recommend that you consult with an attorney to review the specific facts.
