You are correct that we don't know all the facts. But at the end of the day, the fact is that they own the property that the bar is on, and if they want him out, they will ultimately get him out. Whether the resort has any business or not is irrelevant to the question of whether he has a lease or not, and whether he violated the lease. As the owners of the resort, shouldn't they be able to limit who comes in to a bar on their property? SXM law is different from the US, for sure, but here in Florida, he would be out on his ear in a heartbeat, unless he paid ALL the monies due into the court in escrow. SXM law is very different though and my understanding is that people can go on for years without paying rent. But in the end, it's a bar on their property, and unless he has an enforceable lease, he will be out.
