Does the lessee's imprisonment, illness, loss of sustenance, or destruction of their belongings permit termination of the lease agreement?
General Chapter

Book of Leasing
Primary text
If the lessee is imprisoned, falls ill, loses their means of support, or has their property destroyed, they do not possess the right to terminate the lease for such reasons. This is because the abandonment of utilizing the benefits stems from a matter originating from the lessee's side, and this abandonment does not negate the obligation of the rent payment, similar to when the lessee abandons use by personal choice.
