Jordynne was the manager of Pets-R-Us, a pet store in Southern Valley Mall. Pets-R-Us had a one-year lease, and rent payments were $2,000.00 per month. Five months into the lease, Jordynne found a better site for the pet store. She notified Southern’s manager, vacated the mall, and moved her store to its new location. After two months, Southern was able to re-lease the premises to another retail store, but at a reduced rent of $1,800.00 per month. If Southern successfully sues Pets-R-Us, Southern will likely receive:_________

Respuesta :

Southern is likely to receive $14,000 for damages

A lease such as the one between Jordynne and Southern represents a contract. Due to this, it is expected both parties met the conditions previously agreed. This means:

  • Jordynne should have stayed in the first site for a year.
  • Southern cannot ask Jordynne to leave the site she rented.

In this context, it was Jordynne the one that breached the contract, as a consequence Southern can sue her. In this case, it is expected Jordynne has to pay the rent for the months she was not in Southern Vally Mall.

$2,000 x 7 months (she left in the fifth month) = $14,000
