I co-signed a 13 month lease for an apartment for my son in Ohio in September of 2007. In February 2008 my son was arrested for the burglary of another apartment at his apartment complex and was arrested and is now in jail awaiting trial. Today I received from the landlord by FAX a "Notice of Apartment Lease Termination" from the landlord stating that the Apartment Lease agreement will terminate in 30 days on March 31, 2008. The landlord told me that I had to pay the rent for the month of March so I did. I was asked for my permission by the landlord to change the locks at no cost to me and I said OK. The landlord did not say if I would be liable for the remaining 6 months left on the lease. Will I be held liable to pay the rent for the next 6 months when the apartment complex is the one that terminated the lease agreement?
