Kline was both president and one of two directors of Fayes, Inc. The business, the ladies’ readyto-wear department of a department store, was supervised by a general manager and operated under a five-year written lease. In March, the renewal lease was sent to Kline, as president. He held the lease for eight months and then had it redrawn as a personal lease in his own name. The new lease became effective July 1, but the corporation continued to operate until July 31, when Kline seized all of its assets, including the inventory and fixtures. Did the corporation have any legal recourse?
