Synopsis
In this holdover proceeding, the court sanctioned the landlord's attorneys for misconduct after they failed to conduct a reasonable inquiry into the tenant's status. The court found that the tenant had lived in the Rent Stabilized apartment for over 20 years and had received Section 8 benefits. The attorneys' actions, including false representations and inappropriate conduct, warranted financial penalties and a referral to the Grievance Committee.
