Relationships Among Subtenancy, Prime Tenancy and Landlord Explained

The Second Department explained the relationships among a subtenancy, the prime tenancy and the landlord as follows:

“As a general rule, where a landlord and prime tenant enter into an agreement to voluntarily terminate the paramount lease, the subtenant becomes the immediate tenant of the original lessor, and the interest of the subtenant and terms of the sublease continue as if no termination had occurred”…. “However, because a sublease is dependent upon and limited by the terms and conditions of the paramount lease from which it is carved, a subtenancy may be terminated by the expiration of the term of the prime tenant, or a re-entry by the landlord for a condition broken”….  380 Yorktown Food Corp v 380 Downing Dr, LLC, 2013 NY Slip Op 04327, 2nd Dept, 6-12-13
