Lessor v. Lessee: Eviction and Damages for Rent Default and Unauthorized Subletting

A lessor sued a lessee for eviction and payment of damages following the non-payment of rent and the subsequent breach of a lease clause prohibiting subletting without the lessor's consent, despite the lessee having made partial payment after the lawsuit was initiated. The court upheld the decision to grant eviction and damages, reasoning that the initial and substantial breach of the lease agreement, including the failure to pay the full amount of rent due and the unauthorized subletting, justified the termination of the lease, and that the subsequent partial payment did not retroactively cure the breach concerning the eviction or the damages already incurred.
