At [December 1st], there is no limitation in the partnership agreement about the partners not being able to raise the rent_ I see no reason why any agreement should stand between the partnership’s right to raise the rent to $168.94 a day, which is what they said they were going to do if Mr. Auger remained. I find that this is within the rights of the partnership to do it. This is a commercial lease between sophisticated business-men_ Mr. Auger could easily have avoided paying this rent by moving out. He chose not to, and therefore I find that he is voluntarily remaining on the property in the face of the notice, and is therefore responsible for the rent at $168.94 a day from December 1, 1993 to today, which adds up to a total of $55,243.13, which plus the $14,000 is a grand total of $69,243.38 rent due and owing from Mr. Auger.
