(Court opinion corrected 1/3/13.) Plaintiff realty company sued former tenant to collect monthly payments that former tenant had agreed to pay, in addition to rent, for building improvements. Court erred in holding that sale of property extinguished Plaintiff's standing to sue for HVAC payments under the lease. Debt claimed in Complaint matured before the property was sold, and thus debt did not pass on to the subsequent property owners. (HALL and GARCIA, concurring.)
