Signed a lease but did not move in because we are filing bankruptcy, what will happen?
We signed a 1 yr lease to rent a house we have not even paid the deposit or any thing, and we decided not to move in. We filed bankruptcy and the landlord now wants some money out of us, but we have none. I have found online where it says that you can choose to end a lease or assume it. So choosing to end it, do I owe her money? I gave her 2 week notice that we were not going to move in like we agreed. If she sues me, for the amount of the rent for one year can it be dismissed in the bankruptcy? We decided to stay w/ parents to save our money to pay for the bankruptcy it seems we are too broke to go broke!
