Despite the Stay on Evictions, Nuisance Conduct Will Not Be Tolerated.

Another big win  for SKH Heiberger – Landlord awarded possession after trial based on proving ongoing nuisance. Click here for the Court’s Decision.

Once again, SKH Heiberger was able to secure a huge victory on behalf of our client, a landlord that had been experiencing ongoing issues with a dangerous and reckless tenant.  Utilizing the trial testimony of numerous building tenants that willingly came to court to testify regarding their many negative experiences with the offending tenant who had placed them in danger as a result of a fire as well as other ongoing issues, the landlord was able to prevail at trial and the court did not grant the tenant any ability to cure post judgment. 

The trial court found that “respondent’s behavior has resulted in extensive damage the neighboring apartments and endangers the health, safety, and welfare of other tenants.  As in Frank v Park Summit Realty, supra, the remedy that lies is the removal of respondent from the premises.”

 While you cannot currently evict for non-payment or holdovers until May 1, 2021 there is recourse if your tenant is damaging your property.
