Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York
landlord/tenant dispute
I was in the hospital and while I was in the hospital my landlord evicted me and threw out all my belongings. I went to court to fight this and I won. However, when I went back into the hospital my landlord went back to court and since I was in the hospital it looked like I forfeited. Hence, he won and I was evicted. I was wondering what the statute of limitations was to fight this and try and get my apartment back.

You need to have an Order to Show Cause filed quickly to vacate the judgment and warrant of eviction. This area of law is our specialty, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
