Reste Realty v. Cooper: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:46, April 27, 2024

In 1958, Mrs. Cooper rented the basement floor of an office building for business meetings & training sessions
Because of construction defects in the driveway, Cooper's rented space became flooded whenever it rained
After re-surfacing by the proprietor, the rain leaks became worse
After the former building manager died in 1961, the new building manager ignored Cooper's leak complaints
Cooper's meetings & trainings were disrupted because of the water leaks
After a rainstorm that flooded the building basement at 5 inches in December 1961, Cooper submitted a notice & vacated the premises
Reste Realty Corp. = "Reste" = the new management company of Cooper's building in New Jersey in 1962
Cooper's lease was assigned to Reste in 1962

In 1964, Reste sued Cooper for un-paid rent for the balance of Cooper's lease term
