Synopsis
In a case brought by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development of the City of New York regarding violations and civil penalties for premises in New York, the court denied the respondents' motion for an extension to purge contempt. Despite the respondents' arguments about difficulties in correcting violations, the court found their efforts inadequate given the persistent and serious living conditions endured by tenants. Consequently, the court denied the motion and ordered the issuance of a warrant for arrest and commitment to civil jail as previously contemplated.
