Fred leases a taco store in the shopping center. In order to prepare his tacos, Fred installs a large, old stove to cook the meat. The lease runs out and Fred does not want to renew the lease. He leaves town and leaves the stove in the landlord's property. The lease contract did not mention the stove and the landlord is very unhappy. What is the legal situation now?

Answer:

The stove is a trade fixture, but Fred did not take it with him upon the expiration of the lease. Now it is the property of the landlord.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in the given situation it is mentioned that that lease would run out and he does not want to renew the lease also he leaves the stove in the property of the landlord. Due to this the landlord is very sad

So here the legal situation is that the stove would be classify as a trade fixture also he did not take it with him so now it would be the property of the landlord

The same would be considered
