We are forcing someone who does not want to pay for something to pay for it by making them continue to have a non-paying renter occupy something they could be making money from. That is theft. The judge is wrong for not forcing the renter to pay.

And, sorry. If no one wants to pay the freight, it’s just so much scrap metal. The owners are deadbeat renters.

I would have kept every car I ever owned if I could. But I wouldn’t force someone else to pay for storage. That’s criminal. Say someone buys a “historic building” to use the land for something else. Then, along comes the public and sues them to force them to keep the outdated, unusable building because it’s “historic.” If they felt so strongly, why didn’t they buy it with their own money? Again, using the courts to steal from someone.

They are paying rent, but not a rent increase. It could be moored in the river until they find a new home.

The organization has been unable to raise the funds to restore it in place. It cannot afford higher rent.

The ship will be scrapped. The decay must be extensive.

The ship is not floating. Last I heard it was in several yards of mud and will be difficult to move.

It is also structurally dubious.
