Before concluding, I feel constrained to discuss two prior opinions of this Court which may seem to be at odds with my holding (1) that local law permits a leasehold forfeiture to be redeemed and the leasehold interest reinstated at any time until “execution is executed,” by paying the full amount of rental arrears, and (2) that bankruptcy law enhances this local law right, first by automatically staying its enforcement for a period of time within the sound discretion of the bankruptcy court, and second by permitting the rental arrears to be paid, not in full immediately, as required by local law, but within such time as the bankruptcy court may find to be a reasonable time. Those two prior opinions are In re Aries Enterprises, Ltd., 3 B.R. 472, 6 B.C.D. 280 (Bankr.D.D.C.1980), and In re Chuck Wagon Bar-b-que, Inc.,
