How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding trial court did not err in holding parties' agreement was embodied within four corners of contract where contract was unambiguous and other document executed with contract conflicted with its terms
• refusing to imply a covenant in the parties’ lease requiring the tenant to operate a specific business on the site because the “parties were capable of including such a provision in the express language of the contract and failed to do so”
• refusing to imply an operating covenant where the parties occupied relatively equal bargaining positions; neither party was a novice in lease negotiations; and the lease was a sophisticated document using clear, precise language covering myriad details regarding the parties’ relationship
• implied covenant not found where tenant operating a grocery store only had right to assign or sublet the premises for the same use
