A series of tenancy contract disputes
Selected as "Cultural and Natural Heritage of Fujian Courts"
Typical Cases (Cases) of Judicial Protection
It is a two-level court in Quanzhou
The only case selected
Basic facts of the case
In 1978, a department of the former Quanzhou City leased the house to Hu Mou, the former owner of Su Tingyu's former residence, as office space, and built a two-story "comprehensive building" within the land area of the house. Since then, the property owner and the custodian have long lacked effective management of Su Tingyu's former residence, and the department was restructured into a state-owned enterprise and became the actual custodian of Su Tingyu's former residence.
Former residence of Su Tingyu before the restoration
In 2014, the state-owned enterprise subleased the disputed house to a cultural company in Quanzhou. The cultural company repaired and constructed Su Tingyu's former residence, and carried out cultural promotion and operation. Hu Mou and Wang Mou, the current owners of Su Tingyu's former residence, filed a civil lawsuit with the Licheng Court, demanding the return of the house and compensation for the loss of rent during the occupation of the house.
The former residence of Su Tingyu after the restoration
During the trial, the Licheng court found that the cultural company had certain experience and strength in the repair of ancient buildings and the promotion of traditional culture in southern Fujian, while the property owner had lived abroad for a long time and the economic conditions were not abundant. In order to be more conducive to the protection of cultural relics, maintain the integrity of Su Tingyu's former residence, and fully excavate its profound historical and cultural resources, the Licheng Court has organized the parties to coordinate many times, and finally promoted the parties to sign a mediation agreement. The current owner re-signed a 15-year lease contract with the cultural company, and the case was satisfactorily resolved.
Typical
The use and protection of cultural relics is not necessarily a contradiction. The scientific and rational use of cultural relics in strict protection can better awaken the historical memory of cultural relics, highlight the self-use value of cultural relics, and make ancient cultural relics glow with the charm of the times. As a cultural celebrity in southern Fujian, Su Tingyu's former residence covers an area of about 4,000 square meters, which is one of the larger and more completely preserved official residences in Quanzhou.
Under the premise of fully protecting the legitimate interests of the parties, the Licheng court strives to promote the parties to reach a mediation agreement, introduce the professional strength of cultural and creative industry companies, transform the former residence into an art space with minnan characteristics, explore the road of revitalization and utilization of historical ancient houses, let the market vitality inject into the protection of the ancient city in accordance with laws and regulations, and let the ancient houses in southern Fujian "come alive". The successful resolution of this case has a high reference value for the protection and utilization of similar cultural relics.
