Synopsis
In this nuisance holdover proceeding, the landlord sought to reargue a dismissal based on failure to provide required VAWA notices to the tenant. The court upheld the dismissal, concluding that the landlord's noncompliance with federal regulations rendered the proceeding defective. The court emphasized that the notices are mandatory regardless of the tenant's domestic violence status.
