Synopsis
In a holdover case, the court granted the tenant's motion for discovery, allowing the tenant's counsel to inspect and copy the tenant file in a Project-Based Section 8 building. The court noted the landlord failed to allege prejudice or privilege and highlighted that any delay in the proceeding could have been avoided had the landlord complied with the initial request for the file, referencing federal requirements entitling the tenant to view their file.
