Pre-Answer Motion by Tenant

Motion Granted for Tenant

Tenant Substantially Won

In this nonpayment proceeding, the court declined to strike the tenant's reply papers after the landlord moved to dismiss the petition on only one day's notice. Exercising its discretion under CPLR 2214(b) and CPLR 406, the court allowed the reply papers, finding that limiting litigants to half-arguments would not serve the goal of a just, speedy, and inexpensive determination of proceedings under CPLR 104.

Respondent/Tenant Granted Leave to Submit Reply Papers to Short-Served Motion to Dismiss Under CPLR 2214(b) & CPLR 406

"Stella Blue Realty LLC v. Debrosse" (2026). All Decisions. 2354.
