Chapter 11
MOTION OF B&B PARKING, INC. FOR (A) A DECLARATION THAT ITS LEASE WITH THE DEBTOR IS TERMINATED EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 28, 2011 AND ALTERNATIVELY FOR RELIEF FROM THE AUTOMATIC STAY TO TERMINATE LEASE AGREEMENT FOR PROPERTY IN ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. AND (B) A DECLARATION THAT IT MAY IMMEDIATELY CEASE PROVIDING PARKING SERVICES TO THE DEBTOR
Background
1. The moving party, B&B Parking Services, Inc. (B&B) seeks the relief stated above with respect to the debtor in case no. 10-13826 - Grand Prix Floating Lessee, LLC (Debtor). B&B provides parking services to the Debtor in connection with the Debtors operation of a Marriott Hotel (the Hotel) located at 1212 Pacific Avenue in Atlantic City, N.J. (the Hotel Property). In or about April 2008 B&B and the Debtor negotiated a written agreement to govern their relationship (the Agreement). A copy of the Agreement is attached
1 The Debtors in these Chapter 11 Cases, along with the last four digits of each Debtors federal tax identification number, are listed on the attached Exhibit A. 2 as Exhibit B to the Certification of William Boland submitted in support of this motion (the Supporting Certification). Although the parties did not execute the written Agreement, they have conducted themselves substantially in accordance with its terms since it was prepared. 2. The Hotel Property does not have sufficient parking spaces to meet the needs of the Hotel operation. The Debtors Agreement with B&B includes the following provisions: A. B&B shall lease the Debtors parking lot from the Debtor and pay monthly rent to the Debtor.
B. B&B shall lease a second lot in the immediate vicinity of the Hotel from a third party, to provide additional parking spaces for Hotel guests.
C. B&B shall provide valet parking services 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, and the Debtor shall collect the parking fees from its guests and pay them to B&B.
D. The term of the Agreement is two years and the Debtor has an option to renew the Agreement.
The Debtor did not exercise its option to renew the Agreement for an additional year. The Agreement thus expired by its own terms in April 2010. The Debtor filed its bankruptcy case on July 19, 2010. 3. Although the Agreement expired by its own terms in April 2010, the parties continued to conduct themselves substantially in accordance with its terms thereafter. However, in early November 2011, after the Debtor filed its bankruptcy case, the City of Atlantic City issued a notice that an unpaved portion of the parking lot on the Hotel Property cannot be used for parking. That notice prompted a discussion between the parties regarding the unresolved issue of improving that portion of the Hotel Property so that it could be used for parking, at which time the parties also addressed other open issues, without success. It is not economically feasible for B&B to continue the current status quo. Accordingly, B&B seeks relief from the automatic stay to give the Debtor notice that it is terminating the tenancy. 3 4. With respect to the parking services that B&B provides under the Agreement, B&B has advised the Debtor that it cannot continue under the present arrangement, because it is not economically feasible. B&B further advised the Debtor, through counsel, that it has the right to discontinue its parking services without notice. B&Bs counsel asked the Debtors counsel to confirm its agreement with that assertion, or alternatively to provide authority to the contrary, but Debtors counsel has done neither. 5. B&B has submitted a Memorandum of Law with this Motion, setting forth the authorities supporting its requests for relief. Conclusion
Based upon the acts set forth above, and the authorities and arguments in B&Bs Memorandum of Law, B&B respectfully requests this court to enter an Order (a) declaring that the lease provisions of the Agreement are terminated effective February 28, 2011, or alternatively that B&B is granted relief from the stay to give notice that the lease provisions of the Agreement are terminated, and (b) declaring that B&B has no obligation to continue providing parking services to the Debtor.

Dear Chris:
I received the e-mail below from Mark Murphy at Innkeepers Trust, and forwarded it to my client B&B Parking. My client advises that it continues to lose money from this operation, and cannot continue. It is no longer interested in any agreement under which it would pave the unpaved lot. My instructions are to take whatever action is necessary to terminate the arrangement, so I will file a motion next week. B&B Parking is open to discussing a short term transition period if that would avoid the necessity of going to court. If Mr. Murphy would like to address that with B&B, he should contact Bill Boland immediately. Thank you.
Cordially,

In the event Tenant fails to perform any of its obligations under this Lease in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, or in the event Tenant fails to pay for anything which, under the terms of this Lease Tenant is 12 required to pay for, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon giving Tenant at least three (3) days prior written notice of its election to do so (in the event of any emergency no prior notice shall be required) to perform such obligation on behalf of and for the account of Tenant and to take all such action to perform such obligations, or to pay for Tenant's obligations. In such event, Landlord's costs and expenses incurred in connection with performing or paying for any obligation of Tenant shall be paid by Tenant as an additional Tenant Payment forthwith upon written demand by Landlord, with interest from the date Landlord incurs such expenses at the highest lawful rate. The payment by Landlord of any obligation of Tenant shall not constitute a release or waiver of Tenant therefrom. E. Special Provisions Regarding Bankruptcy. In the event of an assignment by operation of law under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or any state bankruptcy or insolvency laws, or if Landlord elects not to terminate this Lease as hereinabove provided, the assignee at the request of Landlord as a condition to such assignment shall provide Landlord with adequate assurance of future performance of all of the terms, conditions and covenants of the Lease, which shall include, but shall not be limited to, assumption of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease by the assignee and the making by the assignee of the following express covenants to Landlord. 1. That the assignee has sufficient capital to pay all Tenant Payments and other charges due under this Lease for the entire Term; 2. That assumption of this Lease by the assignee will not cause Landlord to be in violation or breach of any provision in an other lease, financing agreement or operating agreement relating to the Hotel; and 3. That such assignment and assumption by the assignee will not cause any change in the business conducted within the Premises which would violate any provisions of this Lease. F. Waiver of Jurv Trial. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive trial by jury in and in respect of in any and every action, proceeding, claim (whether or not denominated, a claim, counterclaim, cross-claim, off-set or the like) brought or asserted by either against the other with respect to any matter arising out of, under or connected with this Lease. 36.

Chapter 11
MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF MOTION OF B&B PARKING, INC. FOR (A) A DECLARATION THAT ITS LEASE WITH THE DEBTOR IS TERMINATED EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 28, 2011 AND ALTERNATIVELY FOR RELIEF FROM THE AUTOMATIC STAY TO TERMINATE LEASE AGREEMENT FOR PROPERTY IN ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. AND (B) A DECLARATION THAT IT MAY IMMEDIATELY CEASE PROVIDING PARKING SERVICES TO THE DEBTOR
LEGAL ARGUMENT
I. Jurisdiction and Venue
This Court has jurisdiction over this Motion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157 and 1334(b) and the standing order of reference of the district court. This matter is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157(b). Venue in this Court is proper under 28 U.S.C. 1408 and 1409. The moving party B&B Parking, Inc. (B&B) bases its request for relief upon Bankruptcy Code 362(d) and Bankruptcy Rule 4001(a)(1).
1. The Debtors in these Chapter 11 Cases, along with the last four digits of each Debtors federal tax identification number, are listed on the attached Exhibit A. 2 II. B&B is a Month to Month Tenant of the Debtor and May Terminate the Lease Agreement By Giving the Debtor One Months Notice of Termination
Section 33 of the Lease Agreement provides that the Agreement is governed by New Jersey law. A copy of the Lease Agreement is attached as Exhibit B to the Certification of William Boland submitted in support of this motion. N.J.S.A. 46:8-10 (Tenant holding over; tenancy from month to month) provides as follows: Whenever a tenant whose original term of leasing shall be for a period of one month or longer shall hold over or remain in possession of the demised premises beyond the term of the letting, the tenancy created by or resulting from acceptance of rent by the landlord shall be a tenancy from month to month in the absence of any agreement to the contrary.
B&B continued to pay rent to the Debtor after the Agreement expired, which the Debtor accepted. As a result, a month to month tenancy was created pursuant to N.J.S.A. 46:8-10. Here, as in S.D.G. v. Inventory Control Co., 178 N.J. Super. 411 (App. Div. 1981),
(i)t is clear that after the termination of the lease . . . the tenant's status became that of a month-to-month tenant on the same terms as set forth in the lease. N.J.S.A. 46:8-10. And see Heyman v. Bishop, 15 N.J.Super. 266, 269, 83 A.2d 344 (App.Div.1951). There is no statute prescribing the requirements of a tenant's notice to the landlord of its intention to terminate a month-to-month tenancy. Thus, the common-law rule requiring at least one month's notice to quit is applicable. See, e. g., Burns v. West America Corp., 137 N.J. Super. 442, 349 A.2d 142 (Cty.Ct.1975). And see Hertzberg v. Siegel, 8 N.J.Super. 226, 73 A.2d 840 (App.Div.1950); Hanks v. Workmaster, 75 N.J.L., 73-74, 66 A. 1097 (Sup.Ct.1907); Steffens v. Earl, 40 N.J.L. 128, 134 (Sup.Ct.1878). And although our courts have not apparently been called upon to address the question, a recognized corollary of the common-law rule is the proposition that if the notice is given during the same month in which the quit is to take place, it will be effective as of the end of the month following the month in which the short notice was given. See 3A Thompson, Real Property, s 1355 at 673-674 (1981). Cf. Worthington v. Moreland Truck Co., 140 Wash. 528, 250 P. 30 (Sup.Ct.1926).
We are, furthermore, satisfied that the common-law rule which refers the effective date of the late notice of vacation to the end of the next ensuing monthly period is eminently sound as a matter of public policy, common sense and customary practice. 3
178 N.J. Super. 411, 414-15 (footnote omitted).
The relative rights of the parties with respect to B&Bs tenancy are thus well settled. A month to month tenancy was established when the original term of the lease expired without an extension. New Jersey law requires the tenant to give the landlord notice of its intention to terminate the tenancy, which notice is effective at the end of the month following the month in which notice is given. III. This Court Should Grant B&B Relief From the Automatic Stay for Cause Under Bankruptcy Code Section 362(D)(1)
The determination whether cause exists to lift the automatic stay is made on a case-by- case basis, based upon the totality of the circumstances. In re Bogdanovich, 292 F.3d 104, 110 (2d Cir. 2002); In re Enron Corp., 306 B.R. 465, 476 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2004), and is committed to the sound discretion of the Bankruptcy Court. In re Sonnax Industries, Inc., 907 F.2d 1280, 1286 (2d Cir. 1990). The term cause is a broad and flexible concept which permits a bankruptcy court, as a court of equity, to respond to inherently fact-sensitive situations. In re A Partners LLC, 344 B.R. 114, 127 (Bankr. E.D. Cal. 2006). Bankruptcy Code section 362(d)(1) requires an initial showing of cause by the movant. In re Balco Equities Ltd, Inc., 312 B.R. 734, 749 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2004). Once the movant has satisfied its initial burden, the opposing party has the ultimate burden of disproving the existence of cause for relief from the automatic stay. In re Sonnax Industries, Inc., 907 F.2d at 1285; In re Henderson, 245 B.R. 449, 455 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2000); 11 U.S.C. 362(g)(2). Numerous courts have held that is intended to act as a shield, not a sword. See, e.g., Int'l Distrib. Centers v. Walsh Trucking Co., 62 B.R. 723, 730 (S.D.N.Y. 1986); Price & Pierce Int'l v. Spicers Int'l Paper, 50 B.R. 25, 26 n. 1 (S.D.N.Y. 1985); In re Briarpatch Film Corp., 281 B.R. 4 820, 834 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2002); In re Moss, 270 B.R. 333, 342 (Bankr. W.D.N.Y. 2001); In re Synergy Devel. Corp., 140 B.R. 958, 959 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1992); Sternberg v. Johnston, 595 F.3d 937, 948 (9th Cir. 2010); Winters v. George Mason Bank, 94 F.3d 130, 136 (4th Cir. 1996); Bank of America National Trust and Savings Ass'n v. Edgins (In re Edgins), 36 B.R. 480, 484 (9th Cir. BAP 1984); In re Harris, 374 B.R. 611, 617 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 2007); In re Mid-City Parking, Inc., 332 B.R. 798, 815 (Bankr. N.D. Ill. 2005); In re Mirant Corp., 314 B.R. 347, 353, n. 14 (Bankr. N.D. Tex. 2004) (collecting cases). In this case it appears that the automatic stay is being used not as a shield to prevent dismemberment of the estate, but as a sword to prevent B&B from exercising its right to terminate the Agreement, for no apparent purpose. As noted, B&B has an absolute right to cease providing parking services immediately. B&Bs lease of the Hotel Lot serves no purpose of the Debtor if B&B is not also providing parking services. Indeed, the Debtors lease of the Hotel Lot is contrary to Debtors interests once B&B stops providing parking services, because the Debtor clearly needs the Hotel Lot to be available for employees and guests to park their cars. B&B therefore respectfully asserts that it has established cause for obtaining relief from the stay in this case, and has also established cause for a waiver of the ten day stay imposed by Bankruptcy Rule 4001(a)(3) on an Order granting stay relief. IV. This Court Should Declare that the Lease Provisions of the Agreement Are Terminated Effective February 28, 2011
As noted above, the parties have been in negotiations regarding the terms of the Agreement since at least November 2011, when the City of Atlantic City issued a notice that cars cannot be parked on the unpaved portion of the Hotel Property. By an e-mail dated January 14, 2011, B&Bs counsel advised the Debtors counsel that the negotiations had concluded without success. See Certification of John P. Leon, Esq. submitted in support of this motion. The Debtor 5 has therefore been on notice of B&Bs intention to terminate the Agreement since that date, though no actual notice of termination was issued due to the automatic stay. The purpose of the notice requirement would therefore be served by this court declaring that the Agreement shall terminate on February 28, 2011. Clearly, the requirement of a month's notice is intended to afford the landlord a reasonable opportunity to secure another tenant. See e. g., Pennsylvania R. R. Co. v. L. Albert & Son, Inc., 26 N.J.Super. 508, 511, 98 A.2d 323 (App.Div.), certif. den., 13 N.J. 361, 99 A.2d 675 (1953). We are persuaded that that purpose is fully satisfied by the rule of the deferred efficacy of the notice since the landlord thereby is afforded not only a full month in which to find another tenant but, in addition thereto, that portion of the prior month remaining after the date of the notice. Consequently, we hold that when the tenant gave notice to quit on November 16, 1976, it was obligated to pay rent in the absence of an interim reletting only through December 31, 1976. The judgment below must be accordingly modified to reflect the tenant's rent obligation as encompassing one month only.
S.D.G. v. Inventory Control Co., 178 N.J. Super. 411, 415-16 (App. Div. 1981). The Debtor has known since at least January 14, 2011 that B&B will terminate the Agreement. No purpose will be served by extending the effective date of the termination beyond February 28, 2011. V. This Court Should Declare that B&B Has No Obligation to Provide Parking Services to the Debtor
The Agreement has expired by its own terms. Although New Jersey law dictates that the lease provisions of the Agreement continue in effect on a month to month basis as a result of the continued payment and acceptance of rent under the Agreement, that law does not apply to the provisions of the Agreement relating to B&B providing parking services. B&B may simply discontinue its services. B&B has nonetheless continued to provide services to allow the Debtor an orderly transition period, and to obtain this courts confirmation that it has no obligation to continue providing services to the Debtor. 6 Accordingly, B&B respectfully requests this court to enter an Order declaring that B&B has no obligation to continue providing parking services to the Debtor.
Conclusion
For all of the foregoing reasons, B&B respectfully requests this court to enter an Order (a) declaring that the lease provisions of the Agreement are terminated effective February 28, 2011, or alternatively that B&B is granted relief from the stay to give notice that the lease provisions of the Agreement are terminated, and (b) declaring that B&B has no obligation to continue providing parking services to the Debtor.
