Landlord Substantially Won
Synopsis
Tenant's order to show cause denied. Landlord's application to discontinue granted pursuant to CPLP 3217. However, judge Basu notes that "housing accomodations with government contracted services and where these accomodations are occupied by vulnerable individuals…shall be considered tenants (RSC 2520.ii(j). Court probably did err treating tenant/respondent as sub-tenant, and so petitioner may not have been authorized under law to bring 'no grounds' holdover."
