APPELLATE TERM OF THE SUPREME COURT, FIRST DEPARTMENT
PRESENT: Schoenfeld, J.P., Shulman, Hunter, JJ
570706/09.

Valor Realty LLC, Petitioner-Landlord-Respondent,

against

Letitia Ragno & Alicia Ragno, Respondents-Tenants-Appellants.

Tenants appeal from that portion of an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, New York County (Joseph E. Capella, J.), dated April 14, 2009, which denied their cross motion for discovery in a holdover summary proceeding.

Per Curiam.

Order (Joseph E. Capella, J.), dated April 14, 2009, insofar as appealed from, affirmed, with $10 costs.

Tenants failed to demonstrate "ample need" for disclosure in this nonprimary residence summary proceeding regarding information relating to landlord's knowledge of tenants' alleged nonprimary residence at the premises (New York Life Ins. Co. v Durcekova, NYLJ, Dec. 1, 1998, at 25, col 2 [App Term, 1st Dept.]; Kev Realty Co. Inc. v Goldfarb, NYLJ, Nov. 18, 1993, at 29, col 6 [App Term, 1st Dept.]; see New York Univ. v Farkas, 121 Misc 2d 643, 647 [1983]).
