       PROPERTY 2D: LANDLORD AND TENANT





             PART  I. CREATION   OF  THE  LANDLORD-TENANT RELATIONSHIP

      CHAPTER 1.   NATURE   AND   DURATION OF LANDLORD-TENANT RELATIONSHIP

  § 1.4 Lease for a Fixed or Computable Period of Time

  C.A.6, 2015. Quot. in sup. Tenants who received subsidy payments under a low-income housing
  assistance voucher program sued local governmental entity that administered the program, claiming that
  defendant improperly determined that certain short-term lease fees imposed on them by their landlord
  were not rent within the meaning of the voucher program. The district court granted summary
  judgment for defendant. Reversing and remanding, this court held that the definition of rent
  encompassed all monies paid in consideration for the periodic use of property, not simply the discrete
  charge labelled as rent in a lease agreement. The court cited Restatement Second of Property: Landlord
  and Tenant § 1.4 in reasoning that rent, no matter how it was characterized in a lease, was the price paid
  for the lessee's use of the property for a distinct period of time. Velez v. Cuyahoga Metropolitan
  Housing Authority, 795 F.3d 578, 586.



                               PART  III. TENANT'S  REMEDIES

                CHAPTER 10.   TERMINATION OF THE LEASE AND DAMAGES

  § 10.2 Damages

  N.D.Ill.Bkrtcy.Ct.2015. Cit. in sup. After Chapter 11 debtor, which was the landlord of a food court,
  moved to reject certain unexpired leases with tenants in connection with its sale of the property to buyer,
  tenants filed proofs of claim for rejection damages. This court overruled buyer's objections and allowed
  tenants' proofs of claim with respect to the majority of the damages requested. The court reasoned that,
  under Restatement Second of Property: Landlord and Tenant § 10.2, tenants were entitled to any
  damages fairly and reasonably determined to be naturally arising from the breach or reasonably within
  the contemplation of the parties as a probable result of a breach, including reasonable pre-rejection
  tenant expenditures that debtor, at the time the lease was made, could reasonably have foreseen would
  be made, reasonable relocation costs, and loss of anticipated business profits that were proven to a
  reasonable degree of certainty. In re Lake Dearborn, LLC, 534 B.R. 747, 756.



                         PART  VI. TORT  LIABILITY   OF  LANDLORD

   CHAPTER 18.   LIABILITY   FOR  PHYSICAL HARM TO PERSONS OUTSIDE THE LEASED
                                         PROPERTY
