Answer:
In some jurisidictions, recruits entering into active duty have a statutory right to terminate a lease that was entered into prior to enlistment into military service. Tenant A must provide written notice to the landlord, along with a copy of the induction papers. Generally, the lease will terminate 30 days after the date on which the next payment is owed. The security deposit, if any, should be returned to Tenant A.
