San Francisco: Twitter Inc. was sued for failing to make the $136,250 rent payment for its San Francisco office premises.
According to the tenant's landlord, Columbia Reit - 650 California LLC, Twitter received notice from them on December 16 that, if the rent wasn't paid, it would be in breach of its lease for the Hartford Building's 30th floor in five days, Bloomberg reported.
In the complaint it filed on Thursday in San Francisco's state court, Columbia Reit claimed that the tenant had not complied.
According to a December 13 New York Times article, Twitter hasn't paid rent at its headquarters or any of its other international offices in weeks. Additionally, the business was sued earlier this month for failing to cover the costs of two charter flights.
Requests for comment from Twitter, which doesn't have a media division, went unanswered.
