Synopsis
Landlord filed a holdover proceeding after tenant's lease expired. Tenant vacated the premises. Landlord sought use and occupancy, arguing unjust enrichment. Court denied motion, finding landlord had already accepted possession and monetary judgment could not be awarded without possessory judgment. Court also denied landlord's motion for sanctions against tenant's counsel for allegedly frivolous conduct.
