In the state of Ohio if an apartment complex evicts tenents are the renters still responsible for paying out the rest of the lease?

Re: Eviction in the state of Ohio
Rental Agreement or Lease terms may contain details on this issue. After eviction, the rent cannot be availed from the tenant by virtue of lease since by then, the tenant would lose the right to possess the premises. Though the landlord can sue the tenant for the rent owed, the tenant has the reciprocal right to sublet the premises thereby directing the rent to landlord or to seek an immediate release from the obligation to pay the remainder. Tenant needn’t pay the rent after eviction unless ordered to do so by the court after a proper hearing.
However, it is always advisable to seek the assistance of an attorney who can help answer any questions you may have.Comment
