Key legal question
Whether the extraordinary termination for just cause under Art. 266g CO was valid.
Extracted holding
No. The alleged incidents were either too remote, tolerated by the lessor, or did not make continuation of the lease objectively and subjectively intolerable.
Extracted reasoning
Just cause under Art. 266g CO requires exceptional, unforeseeable circumstances that make continuation intolerable. The lessor did not terminate immediately after the renovation incidents and later reacted to the tenant’s conduct by requesting apologies rather than terminating. Refusal to accept a settlement and to go to court cannot constitute just cause.
