Being sued by ex boyfriend for rent?

Unless you kept a copy of your written notice to him about leaving the apartment you might be stuck with 3 months rent (half) till the lease is up in some states) Small claims is where he'll have to go for the rent which varies from one judge to another, but it's no big deal in court you can tell them "IF and when I get my court ordered child support from that I can afford 50 bucks or (a different amount" That way your paying is contingent upon his paying. But you will have to pay what if any small claims tells you to, but if you don't get it contingent upon his paying you then if he won't pay child support then you still have to pay.
