Hello and Welcome to JustAnswer. My name is***** will be working on your question today and I am looking forward to our conversation.
Debra, Expert
I know your question is important to you and I will be giving it the time and attention it deserves.
I am sorry to hear of this difficult situation.
Do you mean that you want to leave the tenancy before your fixed term lease is up and you have someone who will take over your spot?
Debra, Expert
I will check back in
Debra, Expert
You can provide your landlord with your notice but if the roommate is on the same lease then the notice will not mean very much unless it comes from both of you.
What you should know is that your landlord has a duty to consent to your assignment unless there is a reason not to do so. It is unreasonable for the land or not even to write back to you. They cannot act unreasonably and they cannot withhold consent unreasonably
Do you see what I mean?
Please do not hesitate to ask any follow up questions related to this response and know that I will respond as soon as I can.
Debra, Expert
Yes you should. You should tell him that he cannot unreasonably withhold consent to assign.

Is there anything more I can help you with before I mark this question as complete?
