Syllabus

The nonperformance of a contractual duty when it is due is a breach of the contract. Under the common law doctrine of apportionment of rent, rent is not apportionable as to time rather the person who has ownership of the property at the time that rent is due has the right to receive it. Generally, a material breach by one party gives the non-breaching party the right to terminate the contract.
