The appellant landlord sued the respondent, a competing landlord, for inducing breach of contract after a tenant abandoned the appellant's building and signed a new lease with the respondent.
The tenant had previously threatened to terminate its lease due to the appellant renting space to an abortion clinic.
The Court of Appeal upheld the summary judgment dismissing the action, finding no genuine issue for trial because the evidence showed the tenant had already decided to terminate its lease before any contact with the respondent.
