After the lease expired on May 31, 1999, Gooding brought an action for trespass and ejectment in the District Court in September 1999, pursuant to G.L.1956 § 34-18.1-9, seeking possession of the premises and also a judgment for back rent. In its answer to the complaint, CVS denied that it was in possession of the premises and denied that it was a holdover tenant. Gooding contented that CVS was a holdover tenant because it had retained the keys to the premises; therefore, it was hable for rent following the termination of the lease.
