Getting evicted due to roommate not paying rent
Hello, I need advice on a situation I have found myself in. My roommate, who is on the lease, hasn't paid rent in over a month and at the beginning of the month our landlord handed us an eviction notice. I have had issues with my roommate for a while, especially with them lying about paying rent or communicating with our landlord, so I expected this outcome eventually and was waiting until I had enough to move out, which was going to be next month.
I don't think my roommate is going to pay in time, and I feel a bit unsure if they will ever pay it, so now I am worried about what will happen to me regarding it. Will I become liable for it even if I payed my rent on time always? Would I be taken to small claims or something of the sort?
