Synopsis
The landlord commenced a nonpayment proceeding against the rent-stabilized tenant. The tenant asserted a defense under MDL 302-a, claiming that rent-impairing violations entitled them to a 100% rent abatement. The court found that the tenant failed to prove that the notices of violation were properly served to the landlord and dismissed the defense.
