    Default Does Being Served a 3 Day Notice and Moving Out of State Void 12 Month Lease

    My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Idaho

    My girlfriend rented a house to help friends that were moving out of state and paid way more than market value. Fine until we needed to move out of state also 4 months later. Gave notice..moved...now 4 months later friend/landlord is suing only me for more than 3 months of rent. My girlfriend made the deal...friend was aware I don't pay the rent..she does. She was late on rent the last month and he sent a 3 day notice 2 pay or get out...so we gave notice and moved. Does his notice or our need to move for job help with breaking the lease? And does her name not being on legal papers effect anything?

    did you sign the lease?

    Is the money being sought for past or future rent?

    A three-day pay-or-quit notice alerts you that if you don't pay your rent you can be evicted. It does not void your lease or prevent your landlord from holding you responsible for unpaid rent through the duration of the lease or, if possible, the date when a successor tenant moves in (at the same or higher rate of rent).

    Moving out of state does not end your lease.
