Description

This landlord-tenant action arose when, at the end of its lease, Lincoln Oldsmobile, Inc. failed to vacate property owned by appellees William O. Branch and Roger H. Dean. The appellees filed suit and recovered both double rent and special damages for the time between the end of Lincolns lease and the date it vacated the property, i.e., the holdover period. Lincolns appeal presents two questions for our review: first, whether a landlord may recover double rent for a holdover period preceding the demand for double rent; and second, whether a trial court may award a corporations damages directly to its principal stockholder. We answer both questions in the negative and reverse.
