Legislator summary

The Court of Appeal dismissed the tenant's appeal against the lower court's eviction order. The tenant had been aware that the housing authority had banned the use of the premises, which subsequently led to the property being connected to metro facilities. Consequently, the lease terminated automatically under the Housing Lease Act without the need for formal termination by the tenant. The court ruled that since the lease had ended due to this external cause, the tenant's claim for eviction was invalid and the original judgment was restored.

A haki muutosta.

HO: Tutki asian. D:n suorittama vuokrasopimuksen irtisanominen oli johtunut viranomaisten antamasta päätöksestä kieltää huoneiston käyttäminen. A oli ollut tietoinen tästä seikasta sekä siitä, että huoneisto oli sittemmin liitetty metrotiloihin.

A:n ja B:n välinen vuokrasopimus oli siten huoneenvuokralain 14 §:n 1 momentin nojalla rauennut B:stä ja C:stä riippumattomasta syystä. Sopimuksen irtisanominen ei siten ollut välttämätöntä.

Sen vuoksi ja kun oli jäänyt näyttämättä, että B tai C olisivat sitoutuneet asettamaan A:n käyttöön uusia tiloja, hovioikeus kumosi asunto-oikeuden tuomion ja hylkäsi kanteen.
