This is going to depend on a lot of different factors including whether you agreed to pay a security deposit. If you did, then they can likely take any payment given to them and apply it to the outstanding balance, before applying anything to your monthly rent balance. You should call the Indiana Bar Association and ask them for the number of an attorney who specializes in landlord-tenant law.
