The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 43 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The rationale for requiring a landlord to act reasonably when withholding consent to a subleasing agreement under a provision such as in the case at bar is that a lease, being a contract, should be governed by general contract principles of good faith and commercial reasonableness. Fernandez v. Vazquez, 397 So.2d 1171 (Fla.Dist.Ct.App.1981). Under this view, consent is not to be withheld unless the prospective tenant is unacceptable, using the same standards applied in the acceptance of the original tenant.”
