Q: So long story short, Me and my ex fiance rented an apartment last year in september.
we ended up splitting up during that time and we we're both on the lease. She wanted to renew the lease here and needed my name taken off of the current lease at the end of the year so she could do that. I took my name off the lease which allowed her to renew the lease, in the meantime she let me stay with her, and pay her rent, so i had a place to stay until the waitlist on my apartment got to me so i could move out. Then the other day when i came home from work, she told me that she broke the lease and that we had 3 days to move everything out of the apartment. Im still here in the apartment because i have nowhere else to go at the moment and was served a 10 day notice for "squatting"... But to my understanding im not squatting since i was paying rent to live here until she randomly broke the lease without telling me until it was too late. Aren't i required 60 days? She had previously given me a 60 day notice BEFORE she broke the lease.. So why do i only have 10 days now? i need help
