Abstract
In the presence of a stripping of property, the agreement of the nu-owner to the non-renewal of the commercial lease is not necessary. Consequently, as a matter of principle, only the usufructuary, who alone has the status of lessor, is liable for the indemnity for eviction, with the result that the action brought against the owner for payment of that indemnity is unfounded.
