Synopsis
The landlord's holdover proceeding, based on nonrenewal due to nuisance and nonpayment, was dismissed. The court found that the landlord failed to comply with the Williams Consent Decree by not serving the pleadings on NYCHA. Additionally, the landlord neglected to serve a VAWA notice with the notice of termination. The court rejected the landlord's arguments against these mandatory requirements, leading to the dismissal of the proceeding in favor of the tenant.
