    A few miles outside of Orlando,FL. I have a year lease which will not be over
    Until March of 2008. I would like to know how I can break the lease legally so

    No, you are stuck.

    All is not lost. Go to the landlord and ask for help in sublet-ing your apartment.

    Also, ask the landlord to vacate your lease. (Well you can try :))

    Have cordial conversations with your landlord. Be pleasant. That's the best way to keep a potential lawsuit at bay.
