Synopsis
In this no-grounds/non-renewal holdover involving an allegedly unregulated apartment, the court denies the tenant's motion for summary judgment but grants discovery on the landlord's claim of the small landlord exemption to the Good Cause Eviction Law. Public records suggest the landlord may be connected to a different corporate entity owning additional units in New York state.
