Texas SB2179 allows servicemembers and their dependents to terminate leases without liability under certain conditions.

Texas SB2179 amends the Property Code to allow servicemembers and their dependents to vacate a leased dwelling and avoid liability for future rent and other sums due if specific military-related events occur. These events include the tenant entering military service after the lease is executed, a servicemember receiving orders for a permanent change of station or deployment for 90 days or more, or a servicemember guaranteeing a lease on behalf of a dependent and then receiving such orders.
