Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Illinois

I am renting an apartment and got notice that I was being evicted because of some legal issues my boyfriend is having with the police. They gave me ten days to be out of the apartment and my lease is not up yet. Is this legal?

If your boyfriend is on the lease or is living with you, maybe, if his presence is causing problems for the landlord like a nuisance or if the boyfriend is not supposed to be living there. You'd have to talk to the landlord to find out if they even want you in the place anymore and what it might take for you to stay on. That doesn't mean what they're doing is right but often the answer is negotiation and not litigation.
