    This is an actual appeal case regarding a breach of contract, between leasor Ruthiran Siva v. Richard Hess leasee. Ruthiran Siva the owner of commercial property entered into a written agreement with the Hess family and Shahin. The agreement was the Hess family and Shahin would lease the commercial property for a minimum of five years at $4,000.00 per month. However upon the agreed contract the Hess family and Shahin never indicated they were going to use the space for a bar. On the contrary, Richard Hess and Shahin developed issues “six months later, 1138 LLC was in default and in breach of the lease agreement. Siva sued 1138 LLC and Richard Hess to recover damages. Siva received a default judgment against 1138 LLC, but there was no money in 1138 LLC to pay the judgment.” (Cheeseman, 2013, p. 314) In my opinion Richard Hess and Shahin are completely in the wrong it was unethical to fall back on an agreement, however by Richard having an LLC he knew opening the bar was a bad idea and that he was protected under the LLC and he would not be liable if the bar failed. On the other hand Ruthiran Siva, showed negligence on her part for not having anyone signed the agreement.…
