Winner

Tenant Substantially Won

Synopsis

In this nuisance/breach of lease holdover proceeding, the tenant moved to compel the landlord to substantively respond to a demand for a bill of particulars. The court found the landlord's initial responses "boilerplate and evasive" and insufficient. The court granted the tenant's motion, ordering the landlord to supplement the bill of particulars by a specific date. A conditional and self-executing preclusion order was issued, which will prevent the landlord from entering the requested particulars into evidence if they fail to comply fully and timely, thereby limiting their ability to prove their prima facie case.
