Synopsis
Court denied landlord's motion to amend petition and granted tenant's cross-motion to dismiss in GCEL holdover. Petition contained contradictory GCEL allegations. Proposed amended petition failed to disclose landlord's direct and indirect ownership interests in other residential real property as required by RPAPL § 741(5-b). Court makes summary determination under CPLR 409(b) dismissing petition without prejudice.
