Feb 11, 1982
434 N.E.2d 244 (N.Y. 1982)

Opinion

Argued January 13, 1982

Decided February 11, 1982

Appeal from the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the First Judicial Department, BENTLEY KASSAL, J.

Lionel Alan Marks for appellants.

Arthur S. Linker, Charles A. Crum and Ambrose Doskow for respondents.


MEMORANDUM.

The order appealed from and order thereby brought up for review should be affirmed, with costs, for the reasons stated in the memorandum at the Appellate Division ( 75 A.D.2d 565).

There is no merit to appellant's claim of unconscionability. Not only did the challenged rider commit appellants to pay no greater increase in rent than that determined by the conciliation and appeals board; it additionally accorded them an escape clause in the event of any such increase.

Chief Judge COOKE and Judges JASEN, GABRIELLI, JONES, WACHTLER, FUCHSBERG and MEYER concur.

Order appealed from and order brought up for review affirmed, with costs, in a memorandum.
