Q: A tenant at my shopping center claims that an ongoing plumbing condition in its space is interfering with its business. I’ve been trying to fix the situation, but the problem is extensive and has needed a series of repairs. Now, the tenant is threatening to move out, saying that it has been “constructively evicted.” However, it’s stayed in the space. What is constructive eviction, and could the tenant really prevail on that claim?
