HONOLULU (AP) — Two lawsuits have been filed over Hawaii Pacific University’s relocation into Aloha Tower Marketplace.
KHON-TV reports (http://bit.ly/1hznc5i ) that HPU announced a lawsuit against Hooters for not paying its portion of rent and failing to fix a faulty exhaust system. Hooters fired back, filing a lawsuit against the university for breach of contract.
According to HPU’s claim, Hooters is in default of the lease as of July 22 for failing to pay rent and other charges, owing more than $31,400. The complaint also says Hooters is in breach of contract for not repairing an exhaust system that has been broken since September.
Hooters claims HPU entered a contract ensuring that the recent construction at Aloha Tower Marketplace to install an education center and dorm rooms would not affect business, but that it did.
