Subject: [WSBARP] Tenant suffering from landlord v. owner dispute & possible Wenatchee referral

Potential client called yesterday because her commercial landlord and the building's owner have a dispute about ownership. The purported owner shut off power to the building and, as a result, potential client is suffering daily income losses.

Owner and landlord have filed suit to resolve the question of ownership. Meanwhile, tenant continues hemorrhaging money.

I'm thinking we could file an interpleader motion and request for emergency injunction to get the power back on while then cross-suing both landlord and owner.

Has anyone experience with a similar situation where tenant suffers from landlord-owner dispute?

Sounds to me like L has breached covenant of quiet enjoyment and owner may be tortiously interfering with a business relationship.

This is out in Wenatchee, so might need to refer out there also if someone could recommend a Wenatchee area attorney.

Thanks!
Anthony
