Introduction to Landlord and Tenant Litigation in New York Part 3: Bringing a Case to a Satisfying Conclusion (Stipulations of Settlement, Trials, Eviction Day, and Beyond)

In this class we explore the things that come toward the end of a landlord and tenant matter, although last does not make these important issues least. We will be exploring the many routine and specialized clauses of a stipulation of settlement or a buyout agreement, the steps to take to evict or prevent an eviction, how to make a motion for attorney's fees, and stays pending appeal.
