Missouri Court of Appeals July 23, 2002, No. ED 79545 (Centerline Investment Co. v. Tri-Cor Industries, Inc.)

JAMES R. DOWD, P.J.

Tri-Cor Industries, Inc. (tenant) breached its commercial lease with respondent Centerline Investment Company (landlord). The landlord, in an effort to mitigate, moved another tenant in the building into Tri-Cor’s space, charging a higher rent than Tri-Cor was paying and then sued Tri-Cor for the rent due on the other tenant’s prior lease and for other consequential damages.
