Problem in Palm Beach County.?

Question

I've found myself and my fiance in a somewhat dangerous and sticky situation. A few months ago, we moved in with another couple. Seemed nice enough, passed a background check, mostly nice apartment.

I have since found 2 empty stamp bags which tested positive for cocaine, the relationship between the other couple has deteriorated to the point the apartment is now excessively damaged, they're trying to pressure us into signing on the lease. We want out. Obviously we're not going to sign on the lease. My fiance and I are both working professionals. We cannot take the risk associated with addicts.

Since we are not on the lease, what are our obligations, by law?

What are some resources that could be recommended to assist us in moving safely? We're scared that if we try to move, that they may attack us or our property. We don't want to turn them in, neither myself nor my fiance have generic last names, so we could fairly easily be found after moving by public record.

Advice appreciated.

If you noticed, we ran a background check on both parties. Background check came up clean. There's not alot that can be done about that.

Answer 1

Just move. If they want to discuss anything before you get cleared out, be vague. "We'll talk about it" or "These guys are paid by the hour".

Once you're clear, tell them to go pound sand, but in as nice a way as possible.

If they sue, it will be for "breach of contract". You counterclaim for the same thing. They breached the contract by creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. They'll drop their suit before you have to get specific about what that means.

You owe them zilch.

Answer 2

you guys didn't do your homework before you move in with these peopels . jusy pack you stuff up and move .there are no laws that say you have to stay there

Answer 3

MOVE NOW BEFORE THE APARTMENT GETS RAIDED AND YOU GO IN AS AN ACCOMPLICE. JUNKIES NEVER CHANGE. RUN NOW.

Answer 4

Also: broken machines/too few machines in minority precincts/long lines, changes of polling places in minority precincts without notification, widespread systematic dirty tricks to confuse minority voters regarding the proper precinct to vote in, with inadequate information or misinformation from officials and poll workers regarding proper polling place- resulting in widespread confusion regarding proper polling place; suppression of minorities and democratic voters by manipulation or misfeasance regarding registrations, absentee ballots, and provisional ballots.
