Hello there, I have a friend who is stuck in a renting contract with his roommate. He is stuck because the contract is as “cotitulaire” so this means both have to sign to exit the contract. First this seemed fine because both of them didn’t have enough securities to assume the rent on their own and they didn’t expect to not get along one day… well that day happened and now it’s been 6 months of hardship because their co-living doesn’t work out anymore - so my friend wants an exit. Is there anyway to compel the other party into singing the exit of the apartment or for him to take it alone or with some else? Or is there maybe a way to bypass this? They haven’t discussed it yet but we strongly fear the ostrich technique of him burying his head in the sand and not letting him exit so we want to prepare for the worst case so to say… submitted by /u/WathIfThatHappens
