Caplaco Thirty-Four Inc., and Dierbergs Edwardsville LLC filed a complaint April 8 in Madison County Circuit Court against Nguyet Nguyen alleging breach of lease.
According to the plaintiffs' complaint, Nguyen entered into a lease agreement in January of 2007, for the lease of a premises in the Edwardsville Crossing Shopping Center and in March of 2018, signed an amendment to extend the lease until July 31, 2022.

The plaintiffs claim the defendant has defaulted on the lease agreement by failing to pay the minimum rent as well as their share of the common area maintenance and special costs per the lease. The plaintiffs also claim the defendant has failed to comply with a notice of default that was sent on July 17, 2019, and continue to default on the lease.
