Kindly enlight me whether the daughtr of the deceased posing herself as legal heir  can continue the tenancy by residing in  a far away place by employing somebody without renewing the original lease agreement.

plz give more details qua the type of tenancy, state nd other info...however in general daughter is a legal heir nd enjoys all the rights derived from deceased.

The tenancy was inherited by the daughter along with other properties of the deceased father so she became legal representative in the eviction suit. Although the tenancy agreement had expired but the statutory tenancy continued as the eviction suit was not decided in favor of the landlord and no eviction order passed. The girl can continue as respondent even though she is not running business herself from the rented premises but through her representative.

CMA is not decided.

The daughter has stepped in shoe of deceased father.
