California Codes, Civil Code - CIV, Division 2 — Property, Part 2 — Real or Immovable Property, Title 3 — Rights and Obligations of Owners, Chapter 1 — Rights of Owners, Article 1 — Incidents of Ownership, Section 822

Whatever remedies the lessor of any real property has against his immediate lessee for the breach of any agreement in the lease, or for recovery of the possession, he has against the assignees of the lessee, for any cause of action accruing while they are such assignees, except where the assignment is made by way of security for a loan, and is not accompanied by possession of the premises.

Notes

Allows a lessor of real property to use against a lessee’s assignees the same remedies available against the immediate lessee for lease breaches or recovery of possession, for causes accruing while they are assignees. The rule does not apply when the assignment secures a loan and is not accompanied by possession of the premises.
