Re: rent
I can't entirely understand your post, however, it sounds like you did not pay all of the rent you owe them. If that is the case, then you really don't have a defense to their lawsuit, and need to work out an arrangement to repay them over time, and move. If you can repost this with a clearer description of what happened, someone might be able to answer you. Based solely on what I can gather from your post, I can't give you much of an answer because I'm unclear on the issue of the other apartment and why you paid less rent that you should have.
