Opinion
2009-2521 RO C.
Decided February 14, 2011.
Appeal from a final judgment of the Justice Court of the Village of Suffern, Rockland County (Richard H. Ackerson, J.), entered February 17, 2009. The final judgment, after a nonjury trial, awarded possession to landlord in a holdover summary proceeding.
ORDERED that the final judgment is affirmed, without costs.
PRESENT: NICOLAI, P.J., MOLIA and LaCAVA, JJ.
At the nonjury trial in this residential holdover proceeding, landlord established that tenant had failed to install carpeting in his apartment as required by the house rules. In his proprietary lease, tenant had agreed to abide by the house rules, which explicitly state that the carpeting rule is considered a substantial obligation of the tenancy. As tenant admitted at trial that he had not complied with the rule, and since he has not, on appeal, shown any basis to disturb the final judgment, the final judgment is affirmed.
Nicolai, P.J., Molia and LaCava, JJ., concur.
