Highlights
A transferred employee executed a contract for release from an unexpired term of 13 months remaining on his lease of a rented apartment. Although the lessor retained sole authority to relet the premises, the reduced liability the employee obtained constitutes a reasonable effort to settle the rental obligation. The employee may be reimbursed for the full cost of the lease settlement.
