Winner

Tenant Substantially Won

Synopsis

The tenant refused to give access to the apartment for repairs, and the landlord sought eviction. The court dismissed the case because the landlord offered the tenant a lease renewal twice during the pendency of the lawsuit, without mentioning the eviction case. In the Second Department, a lease renewal can undo a termination notice.
