Landlord Seeking Back Rent from Cafe Mod
WARSAW — Courthouse Coffee LLC, known as Cafe Mod, which was located in the Kohls Plaza and closed in December, is being sued for breach of contract and eviction.
IRC Warsaw, LLC filed a complaint for breach of contract and eviction with Kosciusko Circuit Court in late June against Courthouse Coffee Company, LLC, doing business as Cafe Mod, which was located at 622 W. 300N, Warsaw. IRC is seeking $42,283.02 in rent.
Court documents state June 20, 2013, IRC entered into a lease with Courthouse Coffee that in consideration of payment of rent, IRC would lease certain property to Courthouse Coffee. The document noted Courthouse Coffee has defaulted its obligation to pay monthly rent, common area maintenance fees, property taxes and other charges.
IRC notified Courthouse Coffee June 11 demanding the company to comply with its obligation to pay outstanding rent to cure its default within 10 days from the notice. Which, according to documents, Courthouse Coffee is not due, causing a default with IRC allegedly having the right to terminate Courthouse Coffee’s possession rights. Documents also note Courthouse Coffee is unlawfully withholding possession of the premises from IRC.
IRC is asking, in count 1 (breach of contract) and count II (eviction) of the complaint, that the court enter an order against Courthouse Coffee for outstanding rent, attorneys’ fees, legal costs, possession of the premises, and additional rent accrued through the date of judgement.
