Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York

I learned from my sublandlord that he has a small claims case against me in NYC, Brooklyn Court. However, I not longer live in nyc. I live and work in upstate NY. Can I get the case dismissed? Since I dont live in NYC anymore?

If you lived or worked in NYC when the case was filed then the court might have jurisdiction. In any csse, don't ignore the summons.
