Need Help

Postby ctenant » Sun Feb 12, 2006 12:15 pm

Hello

I would like to know if anyone has gone thru this issue my LL attorney serve me with paper for a holdover because the lady that lives downstairs from me wrote that I made to much noise that was not true. She served me all three papers in less than three weeks.
It went to court when I requested a trial case; it was heard in civil court that was dismissed with merit.

I would like know if any one have heard if a lawyer for LL was the lawyer for the condominium which my understanding it stands alone because if has it own a board of manager and law firm that takes care of all their legal matters.

LL only owes the apartment unsold nothing else he does not set policy also for the owner of the apartment below it no his tenant I am rent stabilize and have lived in my apartment for over 24 years.
Thank dolly

What is your question?

Is this history correct?:
When you moved in, the bldg was all rental apts; yours is RS.
Some time later, the owner converted the bldg to condos under a non-eviction plan. The owner therefore became the sponsor.
You chose not to purchase your apt.
The sponsor still owns your apt today and is still your LL.
LL sued you for eviction; you won.

The lawfirm that LL hired is the same one that the condo corp hires.

Questions: what percentage of apts are owned by individuals? what percentage does sponsor still own? did sponsor sell unsold units to investor?
was bldg converted more than 5 years ago?

I need help

The history is correct.
LL been my LL only 3 years
This Attorney how was in court is LL Lawyer
Condo has it own law firm that handle their legal affairs.
There were not present in court..

It is large complex 700 Apartments

Percentage is 82% is own by owners.
18% is own by LL and that is being conservative

thank you dolly
