Property Law: Landlord-Tenant-Preclusion of Assignment and Sublease-Breach of Lease

Defendant rented a mobile home lot from plaintiff; the terms of the lease stated that the property could be occupied only by the named tenants and that the lease was not assignable or subleasable without plaintiff’s approval. Defendant and her co-tenant ultimately vacated the mobile home and allowed defendant’s daughter to move in without plaintiff’s approval.

Where defendant failed to preserve her appellate arguments for review, the court affirmed the judgment for plaintiff.

Judgment is affirmed.
