I signed a lease agreement with my friend to begin 12/01/22. Our friendship recently ended, and they did not ask me to move out but stated that I made them uncomfortable and that I should make other living arrangements as soon as possible. They asked for my original copy of the lease back and said if I did not give it back they would charge me for the entire year. The lease does not include a stipulation that rent is due for the entire year if the lease is broken. Can they charge me for the entire year if that's not included in the lease?
