Synopsis
The court grants the tenant's motion to dismiss and to seal their affidavit and exhibits. The landlord failed to provide required notices under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) with the termination notice, leading to dismissal. This ruling aligns with statutory language and precedent from other jurisdictions, highlighting the importance of serving VAWA notices to protect tenant rights. The court also grants the tenant's motion to seal their affidavit and exhibits, finding good cause under the Civil Rights Law.
