  2. People v. Xanadu

    94 Misc. 2d 10 (N.Y. Misc. 1978)   Cited 1 times
    In People v Spa Xanadu (94 Misc.2d 10 [Crim Ct, N Y County 1978]), the court was presented with a prosecution based upon the defendant's failure to comply with a violation order issued by one City agency, although prevented from doing so by another agency's denial of a permit necessary for the defendant's compliance.

    The department pemitted this work to go forward and then brought on these prosecutions for completion of the work without approval. It is claimed and not disputed that in spite of the zoning moratorium, the department is empowered and/or has empowered itself to grant exceptions thereto and has in fact granted such exception to at least one midtown health and racquet club. The leading case concerning enforcement of building regulations and the difficulties of reconciling traditional concepts of due process with an apparent grant of selective interpretation and enforcement powers to an executive-branch commissioner is People v Namro Holding Corp. ( 10 A.D.2d 702, affd 8 N.Y.2d 1131) and its companion, Namro Holding Corp. v City of New York ( 31 Misc.2d 480, revd 17 A.D.2d 431, affd 14 N.Y.2d 693). A study of both cases on each level of adjudication is appropriate. Even more interesting are the dissenting opinions and the unsettling of the principles established in the first case by the ultimate result in the second one.
