What is the state of the relationship between a defendant and his landlord prior to September 1, 1913?
Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Griffin v. Brunton, 1914 CanLII 112 (SK QB):
I am satisfied from the state of affairs existing as between the defendant and his landlord that the acts of the defendant subsequent to September 1, 1913 were not such that they could have had relation to the one agreement relied on and to no other. That is necessary, in order to take the case out of the statute as is laid down by Lord O’Hagan in Maddison v. Alderson, 8 A.C. 473, at p. 485, 52 L.J.Q.B. 737.
