https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=313224 Section 109 of the Transfer of Property Act permits a transferee of the lessor's interest to step into the landlord's rights, and where the right to recover pre-transfer arrears is assigned, those arrears remain recoverable as rent and may be counted in eviction for default. The record showed that the transferor informed the tenants of the transfer together with the arrears, and the transferee demanded payment, supporting a valid assignment of that right. Tenants who had attorned to the transferor could not collaterally dispute her title or the validity of the auction sale in the eviction proceedings. The eviction decree was sustained on the basis of the transferee's entitlement and the tenants' continuing default. en-us Mon, 04 Aug 2003 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 01 Apr 2024 17:28:30 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=313224 Section 109 of the Transfer of Property Act permits a transferee of the lessor's interest to step into the landlord's rights, and where the right to recover pre-transfer arrears is assigned, those arrears remain recoverable as rent and may be counted in eviction for default.
