Lessor Termination for Unauthorized Sublease Upheld Despite Lack of Notice to Cure
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA lessor sought termination of a lease and rent arrears from a tenant who had sublet the premises without the required authorization, which was a breach of a specific lease clause. The court of first instance had ordered the termination and payment, but the appellate court annulled this decision, ruling that the lack of a formal notice to cure the breach prior to filing suit was a procedural defect rendering the action inadmissible. The Supreme Court quashed the appellate decision, reasoning that while the breach of the sub-lease clause was established, the specific lease agreement did not stipulate a formal notice to remedy the breach as a prerequisite for termination due to that specific violation, allowing the initial judgment ordering termination and payment to stand.
