Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the landlords were entitled to seek ejectment despite the tenant's assertion of a new or extended lease.
Decisione estratta
The landlords remained entitled to assert the ejectment claim because the alleged new lease did not eliminate their standing; the dispute concerned the merits of the claim, not their capacity to sue.
Motivazione estratta
Standing is assessed at judgment and is satisfied when the landlords invoke the return claim under the terminated lease or ownership. The tenant's allegation of a new lease merely contests the substantive basis of the ejectment claim.
