A Tenant's liability is limited by the landlord's duty to mitigate damages by finding a new tenant as soon as possible. (California Civil Code 1951.2) So the tenant can be held liable for the rent until it is re-rented to a new occupant, however, a local legal entity may limit the exiting tenant to only two months. Check with your local city or county rent laws.
