When I moved into my apartment the manager, a friend of my rooomate, had me sign some documents to add me to the lease. My roommate has been at residence for over 15 years. I signed the documents when I moved in 7 years ago. A few years later all residences of the complex without leases were given 30 days to vacate. I was not asked to leave. The complex has changed ownership at least 4 times during the 7 years and I have never been asked to leave because I didn't have a lease.
Recently my rooomate has given my a 30 day notice to vacate... I have told her in writing that I will not. That I have a lease...
(Yes I understand... I should leave if there is any anomosity but, I can trust her to be fair and lawful... if not a friend and I cannot afford to move)
Can I use the defense that I have an implied lease since I had signed lease documents and was not asked to leave any or each of the three times they managment/owners got rid of people (roomate etc) without leases. Also, all rent, letters etc coming in both of our names?
