Synopsis
The court denied the former tenant's motion to vacate a judgment for use and occupancy. The pro se tenant, a former superintendent, had a trial and lost, then moved out. After retaining counsel, he sought to "renew/reargue" the $3, 500/month U&O award. The court treated the motion as an untimely request to set aside a judgment under CPLR 4404(b). It found the tenant offered no "good cause" for his two-month delay and failed to provide sufficient evidence to challenge the U&O amount. The tenant's claims of poor conditions and improper termination were deemed to belong in a separate court.
