Baba v. Evans

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Mar 16, 1995
213 A.D.2d 248 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

March 16, 1995

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Beatrice Shainswit, J.).


The IAS Court properly dismissed the petition for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, because it included a claim against a Justice of the Supreme Court, County of New York, and therefore, should have been commenced in this Court (CPLR 506 [b] [1]). We further note that the claims against the other respondents were previously advanced and rejected in petitioner's prior appeal to this Court (Matter of Baba v. 1133 Bldg. Corp., 210 A.D.2d 6), with the exception of that against the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development alleging improper issuance of a Certificate of No Harassment on June 18, 1993. With regard to that claim, were we to reach the merits, we would find that petitioner has failed to demonstrate that the determination was unreasonable, arbitrary or capricious. We have considered petitioner's other contentions, and find them to be meritless.
