My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: South Carolina
My roomate moved out giving me a one day notice via a letter she put on the fridge. she was moving out because her dog killed a neighbors pet and animal control was called. She said she felt like her dog was no longer secure at the residence. She called the landlord and told him she was moving out and wished to be taken off the lease. I called him and said I was okay with her moving out but would like to sign a new lease document on which she was not on the lease. He said he would bring it by for me to sign but never did. I did not dispute her when she tried to move out because she created such a miserable living environment. But now she has contacted me and says she wants her security deposit back. Is she really entitled to this since she terminated the lease giving me one day notice and did not find a roommate to take her spot. She wants me to pay the security deposit out of my pocket. Isnt this an issue she should take up with the landlord since he has the deposit.
