Pittsburgh, PA asked in Family Law, Child Custody, Child Support and Landlord - Tenant for Ohio

Q: My Daughter is trying to get her ex boyfriends name off her apartment lease. He hasn't lived there for almost a year.

She has had major problems with him she finally got his key back and absolutely nothing in the apartment is his. They are going to be going through a custody battle come November and she needs to get on assistance for insurance for the child and she can't until his name is off the lease. Because it will show his income but he is not in the picture he lives at his parents house right now but his intentions are to get her kicked out so he can show he has a stable residence.. but like I said he has not lived there for almost a year and has not paid ANYTHING towards rent or bills in that year. This is her home along with her son when he's born in November. We need help please. He is not a good person nor his family
