Northwest Commerce Bank v. Continental Data Forms, Inc.

The plaintiffs, Northwest Commerce Bank and C J S Commercial Property Associates, Inc. (the landlords), filed two claims against the defendant, Continental Data Forms, Inc. (the tenant). They sought rent, real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance expenses, and damages on two leases breached by the tenant. After the claims were consolidated and tried, the court awarded the landlords $170,272.45, and the tenant appealed. The landlords brought a cross-appeal, arguing they were entitled to relief if this court ordered a new trial. We affirm the court’s award, as modified.
