The Lease - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Hanxter · 07-07-2005, 10:27 AM

a woman of questionable reputation had taken a client to court for breach of contract for failure to re-imburse.

when asked to explain her claim, she stated the her client had agreed to rent a piece of property in her possesion for which he would pay an agreed-to sum. it was further agreed that when the client was finished with the use of said property, it would have been improved upon to the owners satisfaction.

the judge then asked her client for his side of the arguement where he stated that upon completion of the agreed upon term of lease, the owners property was in such disarray that it could not possibly be improved upon and therefore the contract should be voided.

the owner was asked what portion of the property was to be improved upon during the term of the lease whereas she replied, the well.

referring back to the client, the client stated that the well had gone dry, and further drilling would have been cost prohibitive and may well have extended the term of the lease to the point that other obligations could not be met.

finding for the defendant

I imagine that the women is a prostitute, the land is her body, the well her genitals and the drillling etc is the guys fucking her? etc.
Is that the right interpretation?
