Synopsis
In this HP proceeding, the court denied the landlord's motion to vacate a default Order to Correct for housing code violations. The landlord argued a lack of notice regarding the court date and alleged tenant non-cooperation with repairs. The court held that the landlord's counsel received electronic notice through NYSCEF, denying the lack of notice claim. Furthermore, the court found the landlord failed to prove tenant non-cooperation, noting a reduction in outstanding violations. The tenant's separate motion to restore the proceeding for compliance and assessment of civil penalties was also denied due to the tenant's failure to appear on the return date.
