He got rid of the other tenant, wants me to pay big rent



Dear Legal Wiz,

I, along with another tenant, recently rented Jamaican premises from a man who claims he is related to the landlord who lives overseas. He said it is a family home. This landlord’s relative insisted that he met with and rented the persons directly, although I introduced him to the other tenant. The same landlord’s relative, since caused the other tenant not to move in, although he still held the tenant’s monies paid over. Now he wants me to start paying sums monthly to include the other tenant part.

Dear Mario
You should pay only what you agreed to pay. However, I hope you are trying to find somewhere else to live.
