Alberta > Adult Interdependent Relationships:

My friend told me that if we made an adult interdependent partner agreement we could get an apartment in a building where they only allow couples to rent. I made the agreement, but I found out that my friend made up the story about the building. Am I stuck with this agreement now?

No. An adult interdependent partner agreement is not valid if one person was persuaded to make the agreement by fraud, duress or undue influence. Duress means that someone put a lot of pressure on you to enter into the agreement. Undue influence can mean that someone used their power over you to make you enter into the agreement.
