Synopsis
In this action for damages against a former landlord, the tenant alleged retaliation under RPL § 223-b along with harassment, invasion of privacy, property damage, nuisance, and emotional distress. The Appellate Division affirms dismissal, holding the tenant failed to allege any retaliatory action protected by RPL § 223-b and that the remaining claims were either time-barred or legally insufficient.
