Synopsis
In this licensee holdover proceeding, the Appellate Term affirmed the Civil Court's orders which granted the landlord summary judgment of possession of a condominium apartment and denied the tenant's motion to renew. The landlord sought to evict an adult daughter. The tenant's argument that a familial relationship exempts her from eviction as a licensee was rejected as improperly raised and lacking merit, as the RPAPL contains no such exemption. The court also found renewal properly denied because the purportedly new material was available at the time of the original motion and would not alter the prior decision.
