Supreme Court of Connecticut

Necg Holdings Corp. v. West Broad Service Center, LLC

January 27, 2015

Summary

The court affirmed judgments awarding immediate possession to the plaintiffs in consolidated summary process actions involving gasoline service stations. It held that the notices to quit were valid, evidentiary objections did not warrant exclusion of the governing leases, and rejection of the master lease in bankruptcy terminated the subordinate leases under the circumstances and their terms. The plaintiffs therefore established a prima facie case, while the defendants' Petroleum Marketing Practices Act and related claims were inadequately briefed.
