Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Premises liability question=
Would appreciate comments on the following question:
A commercial property owner (hotel/spa) leases the entire premises to a tenant under a triple net lease. A visitor slips and falls (invitee of the tenant).
Is there some sort of seminal case in FL that holds that where the landlord gives up control of the premises and has no maintenance or repair obligations, and the lease expressly places those obligations in the tenant’s hands, the landlord has no liability for the slip and fall?
Thanks
