Christopher Moran Holdings Limited v Bairstow and Ruddock: ChD 1996

(Orse: Park Air Services) The tenant company went into a members’ solvent liquidation, and disclaimed the lease. At the time, the rental value had fallen very much below the contractual rent. The landlord sought to prove the balance of the rent with no allowance for being accelerated. The liquidator said the claim should be discounted for having been accelerated.
Held: The claim was correct as submitted.
