Any legal eagles out there want to tackle this? Seems if the person responsible (the lease signer) paid the rental in full, the 5 who did not pay (the sub-lettors)could only have a complaint for trespass signed by the lease-holder, rather than the landlord. I have made the assumption that the five removed were not on the lease, as the eviction process was not followed in this case.

In every lease I have signed it says expressly the number and names of people living there. If only one was on the lease, the landlord I assume could kick the others out who were found to be living there. Eviction as far as I understand it only applies to the lessee.
