Answer:

Yes, Letti can sue Terri for breach of contract.

Explanation:

The breach of contract is a legal term referring to a case where one party of the contract violates the deal or contract. When one party of the contract violates the agreed-upon terms and conditions, the other party of the contract has the right to sue the first one.

In the given case, the terms and conditions agreed upon between tenant Terri and landlord Lettie are that the commercial property will be used only for the retail gift shop. But tenant Terri turned it into a small yoga studio without notifying Lettie, the landlord.

So, there is a breach of contract by Terri and Lettie can sue Terri for the same.
