Rolling The Legal Dice

Victor Menasce
About this episode

We often get questions from clients and even listeners to the podcast about the merits of a legal case. To be clear, we are not lawyers and the purpose of today’s show is not to provide legal advice in any way. 

The purpose of today’s show is to illustrate the uncertainty of the legal process. I’m going to report on a case of a commercial lease in the province of Ontario. Commercial leases really are fully described by the contract and are usually not subject to being torn apart by a tenant board in the way that a residential lease might be. The interpretation is going to rely largely on the wording of the lease and much less on outside legislation that might trump the lease.
