Synopsis

In this Good Cause Eviction Law (GCEL) holdover, the court grants discovery because, despite petitioner claiming the small landlord exemption, there was inconsistent publicly available information that undermined this claim. The court held that respondent 'documented sufficient indicia to warrant further exploration of Petitioner's GCEL exemption as a small landlord.'
