Synopsis
In this holdover proceeding against an adult care facility resident, the court granted the tenant's guardian ad litem's post-judgment motion. The motion sought to stay execution of the warrant of eviction. The court stayed the warrant, conditioning its future execution on the landlord proving compliance with Department of Health regulations 18 NYCRR 487.4(m) and 18 NYCRR 487.5(f)(19). These regulations mandate that the landlord make persistent efforts to assist the tenant in securing appropriate alternative placement at a higher level of care, including filing five applications with other facilities.
