    Default Evict Ex-Girlfriend, Only on Lease as Legal Occupant

    So my girlfriend of several years and I break up four months ago. I am on the lease for our apartment, and she is only listed as a legal occupant.

    When we broke up I said she could stay until the end of the year to build up her savings. Instead she's done nothing at all and expects me to pay all her bills. I'm fed up and want her out.

    What do I do? She's not responsible to the leasing company for the rent, just me.

    If she's on the lease, even without obligation to pay rent, you probably have no right to evict her as she's the landlord's tenant, not yours. Laws vary by state.
