Brian Center Nursing Care/Austell Inc. leased five nursing homes from William Foster. The leases expired, and Brian kept possession of the nursing homes while it negotiated a new lease with Foster. No new lease was agreed upon, and Foster leased the homes to another company. Brian would not give up possession, so Foster sued. Brian alleged Foster had promised that the terms of the lease would continue as long as Brian paid the rent and continued to negotiate. Brian claimed it had been injured by relying on this promise, because it had continued to occupy the premises, pay the rent, and negotiate for a new lease. Did promissory estoppel apply to these facts?
