Vorbem zu §§ 581ff; §§ 581-606

This volume provides a comprehensive presentation of tenancy, leasing, and loans. The law governing leasing is presented in relation to extremely varied areas of life - ranging from milk quota leases to bandwidth leasing - as well as other areas of law. In addition to discussing the characteristics of leasing contracts, the volume explores the options and limitations of specific types of contracts under leasing law. Updated agricultural leasing laws now place special emphasis on the consequences arising from the "legal capacity" of the GbR, or civil-law partnership, which has gained importance in recent years as a legal form for agricultural cooperatives. Another major focus is the voluminous body of newer case law and literature related to the management of government subsidies upon termination of leasing contracts.
