Caitlin Steven and Krista Chaytor discuss an increasingly common situation amid the COVID-19 pandemic: tenants being in default of rent, but landlords being unwilling or legally unable to terminate the lease because of that default. They then dive into alternative options that landlords may have to enforce their rights under a lease and what tenants need to consider before withholding payment of rent.
