Synopsis
In this holdover proceeding based on alleged illegal subletting, the court dismissed the petition due to deficiencies in the predicate notices. The court found the notices vague and conclusory, failing to allege specific facts supporting the claim of illegal subletting as required by the Rent Stabilization Code. As a result, the court granted the tenant's motion to dismiss, striking the proceeding and denying the landlord's motion to strike the tenant's counterclaims.
