Under Missouri law, upon a tenant’s default, a landlord normally has three options: (1) the landlord can remain out of possession, treat the lease as subsisting and recover rent; (2) the landlord can give notice to the tenant, resume possession and attempt to mitigate the tenant’s damages by re-letting the premises; or (3) the landlord can re-enter, resume possession in its own right and effectively terminate the lease.
