Legislator summary

The lessor terminated the lease agreement exceptionally due to the tenants' alleged breach of their duty of care regarding property viewings for potential buyers, but the court affirmed the lower court's decision invalidating the termination because all statutory requirements for such action under Article 257f of the Code of Obligations were not met. The court reasoned that while a tenant refusing viewings or setting excessive demands constitutes a breach of duty (Art. 257h Abs. 2 OR), extraordinary termination requires not only this initial breach but also a continuation of such a breach after a warning, and in this case, the lessor failed to sufficiently substantiate that the tenants' conduct during the court-ordered viewings constituted a renewed, relevant breach justifying immediate termination.
