Breach of the lease. What did the Court find?
A) There had been a breach of the tenant's fundamental right of quiet enjoyment and the abandonment was justified.

C) Because the premises were leased for a commercial purpose, not a residential one, the landlord had no obligations.
D) The tenant's obligation to pay supercedes any obligation on the part of the landlord, so the tenant was liable.
E) Because of the frustration endured by the tenant, a tenancy at sufferance was established.
