Abstract
The Arizona law of lease terminations is sparse, incomplete and, in some areas, ambiguous. To adequately protect either landlord or tenant, a lawyer must be aware of the legal principles from many sources–ancient common law rules, current federal and state statutes, applicable court decisions, and judicial attitudes and trends. This article attempts to bring together a number of factors bearing on termination.
The article begins in Section I with a consideration of the general grounds for terminating a lease in Arizona, followed in Section II by a discussion of particular grounds. Section III discusses the procedures for termination, Section IV the lessee's financial liability upon termination, and Section V the lessee's continuing liability under the conflicting property and contract theories of the nature of a lease agreement.
