Summary
In Booston, supra, the Appellate Division, First Department, affirmed the motion court's denial of a Yellowstone Injunction which found that, in light of the nonwaiver clause in the lease, the landlord could not, as a matter of law, be deemed to have waived a lease violation because the tenant had delivered copies of its insurance certificates for years without objection.

Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Andrew S. Borrok, J.), entered September 12, 2019, which denied plaintiff's motion for a Yellowstone injunction, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
Although plaintiff otherwise met the criteria for obtaining a Yellowstone injunction, "[w]here the claimed default is not capable of cure, there is no basis for a Yellowstone injunction" ( Bliss World LLC v. 10 W. 57th St. Realty LLC, 170 A.D.3d 401, 401, 95 N.Y.S.3d 183 [1st Dept. 2019] ). We note that denial of a Yellowstone injunction does not resolve the underlying merits of the dispute or whether the default requires termination of the lease ( id. ).
