Synopsis
Court dismissed licensee holdover petition because the predicate notice claimed the apartment is subject to project-based Section 8 HUD regulations while the petition stated it is rent stabilized. Court found these inconsistencies substantial and prejudicial, depriving respondent of the ability to effectively contest the eviction, particularly in light of respondent's succession claim.
