COVID-19 and resulting government orders
have dramatically impacted commercial landlords and tenants. The pandemic has
led to a rash of nonpayment-of-rent litigation and raised questions about how
attorneys should draft, interpret, and enforce commercial leases, as well as how
both tenants and landlords can try to anticipate pandemic-related issues in new
contracts. In this program, a panel of two commercial litigators (Heather
Marx from Cozen O’Connor and Phil Kaplan from Anthony Ostlund) and a
transactional attorney (Christine Eid from Stinson Leonard Street) will discuss
commercial leasing issues that have come to the forefront due to COVID-19,
including force majeure clauses, impracticability/frustration of purpose
defenses to contract obligations, and contract drafting and litigation
strategies landlords and tenants are using to navigate the
crisis and beyond.
