Mark Weaver v. Frios Gourmet Pops, LLC, Frios Manufacturing, LLC, Andy Harp, and Kevin Harper

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama reversed the trial court’s judgment and remanded for further proceedings, holding that the lease’s default provisions allow recovery of post‑termination damages, including liquidated damages, and that those provisions are enforceable rather than penalties. The Court also found the trial court erred in limiting Weaver’s damages to rent accrued before termination and in excluding evidence of post‑termination damages.
