Baba Metzia 8:5-6

Baba Metzia 8:5

If a person sold his olive trees to another person to make lumber of them, if they produced less than a reviis of oil per seah of olives (about 3.3 ounces per 3 gallons of olives - a very modest yield), then they belong to the one who bought the trees. If they produced a reviis of oil per seah of olives so that the one who bought the trees and the one who still owns the land each claim it, they divide it between them. If a river washed away one’s olive trees and left them in another person’s field with the result that each one claims credit for growing the olives, they divide them.

Baba Metzia 8:6

If a person rented out his house during the rainy season, he cannot evict the tenant from Succos through Pesach. If he rented it during the summer, he must give the tenant 30 days’ notice . In a city (where housing is harder to find), he must give the tenant 12 months’ notice, both in the summer and in the rainy season. To evict a shop, the landlord must give 12 months’ notice both in towns and in cities (because the proprietors need time to collect the debts owed them by customers). Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel says that when it comes to a bakery or a dye shop (who extend exceptional lines of credit), three years’ notice must be given.
