Reminder: CPD on Wednesday – restricting permitted use and the Retail Leases Act 2003 (Vic)

A reminder that our CPD session with Greens List is this Wednesday, 10 June 2026. If you haven’t done so already, you can register here.

In the last post, we introduced the question of whether restricting the permitted use in a lease can prevent the Retail Leases Act 2003 (Vic) from applying, and summarised two recent decisions addressing the issue: Volk Road 2020 Pty Ltd v John White Pty Ltd [2026] VCC; and Karam Investments Pty Ltd v Close the Loop [2026] VSC 270.

In the presentation, we will give a brief overview of the case law to date before discussing both decisions in detail and their practical implications for leasing practitioners.

Hope to see you there.
