<p class="MsoNormal">Art, problem issues I would look into from memory include any rights or obligations that make what is titled and desired to be a license, a lease rather than a license. We can call a horse a cow but that does not mean we can milk it.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A license is not exclusive possession of property for any given period of time nor an interest or an estate in real property, but a specific use at the owners discretion, wherein the licensor retains absolute control of the premises, provides
all essential services and the license is revocable at will. Any rights or obligations that make it appear not like that could be an issue, and a court could find it to be a lease. Another problem is that these requirements may run afoul of deal issues.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I believe, without review, that unlawful detainer applies to real property. Also, I do not know what remedy or actions, if any, is required of licensor before using self-help and locking out the licensee, or how much “force” becomes problematic
or in what way. <o:p></o:p></p>
