Decided on November 10, 2010
APPELLATE TERM OF THE SUPREME COURT, FIRST DEPARTMENT
PRESENT: Schoenfeld, J.P., Shulman, Hunter, Jr., JJ
570415/10.

Jones Street Building Associates, Petitioner-Landlord-Respondent,

against

Roselee Moskowitz, Respondent-Tenant-Appellant.

Tenant appeals from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, New York County (Bruce E. Scheckowitz, J.), dated May 10, 2010, which granted her motion to be restored to possession of the premises in a nonpayment summary proceeding but conditioned restoration upon the payment of $8,348.95 by May 14, 2010.


Per Curiam.

Order (Bruce E. Scheckowitz, J.), dated May 10, 2010, affirmed, without costs.

Tenant failed to comply with the payment schedule set forth in the so-ordered stipulation of settlement resolving this nonpayment summary proceeding and failed to comply with payment deadline extensions provided in subsequent court orders (one specifically denominated as "final"), resulting in tenant's eviction from the subject apartment premises. In this posture, and considering the considerable rental arrears which had amassed and tenant's inability to obtain funds from charitable organizations to satisfy the arrears, Civil Court providently exercised its discretion in denying tenant's motion for restoration relief.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
I concur
