Description
This case requires us to consider the interrelation of the law of contracts and the law of property in determining the obligations of a sublessee for payment of rent after termination of a sublease by abandonment and surrender. We granted certiorari to review the decision of the Colorado Court of Appeals that the termination of a sublease ended the sublessee's obligation to pay future rent. Gordon v. Schneiker, 699 P.2d 3 (Colo. App. 1984). We disagree with that decision and conclude that the rights and obligations of the parties to the sublease with respect to the covenant to pay rent survived the termination of the sublease and that the sublessee is liable for contract damages caused by breach of that covenant. We therefore reverse.
