A quick definition of cotenants:

Cotenants are people who rent the same place together. They each have their own agreement with the landlord and are responsible for following it. This means they have to pay the full rent even if one person doesn't pay their share, and they have to pay for any damage caused by another cotenant. Each cotenant can use the whole place without being stopped by the others. If one cotenant stops another from using the place, the excluded cotenant can take legal action against the other one.

A more thorough explanation:

Cotenants are two or more tenants who rent the same property under the same lease or rental agreement. Each cotenant is responsible for carrying out the rental agreement and paying rent. They also share the responsibility for any damage caused to the property.

Two friends, John and Sarah, decide to rent an apartment together. They sign a lease agreement with the landlord, which makes them cotenants. John and Sarah are both responsible for paying the rent and following the terms of the lease. If John fails to pay his share of the rent, Sarah is still responsible for paying the full amount. If Sarah accidentally damages the apartment, John is also responsible for paying for the repairs.

Another example is a family of four who rent a house together. The parents and their two children are all cotenants. They are all responsible for paying the rent and following the terms of the lease. If one of the children damages the property, the parents are responsible for paying for the repairs.

The examples illustrate how cotenants share the responsibility for paying rent and taking care of the property. Each cotenant is responsible for the actions of the other cotenants. If one cotenant fails to fulfill their obligations, the other cotenants are still responsible for fulfilling the terms of the lease. Additionally, cotenants have the right to use the entire property without interference from other cotenants. If one cotenant restricts access to the property, the other cotenants can take legal action to resolve the issue.

I have this professor for a legal analysis and writing for clients class that said you will need a JD and legal experience to get an A. He also grades ridiculously hard but leaves no comments on why you got that grade or what you did wrong. Dude is pissing me off with the whole you are wrong figure it out approach.
