'''Facts''' Plaintiff leased to defendant the basement, 1<sup>st</sup>, 2<sup>nd</sup>, and 3<sup>rd</sup> floors of a building to sell womenโs clothes, and charged a profit percentage based on the sales of the plaintiff. Under a new contract, the plaintiff leased the 5<sup>th</sup> floor as well, which did not charge bases on sales. Defendant then moved the fur department to the 5<sup>th</sup> floor, and made most of the high sales from there. '''Issues''' # Whether breach of contract is considered in liability for additional rent imposed by the contract in regards to another issue? # Whether a party diverging business to another location to lessen the rent owed violates express or implied covenants. '''Holding/Decision''' Judgment for defendant, except sales directed from the other floors to the 5<sup>th</sup> floor. '''Reasoning''' As long as it did not divert from the contracts formulated by both parties, defendant can carry on its business in the way that suited it.
