I am pursuing in New York City, NY, pro se, an appeal of a post trial decision, in a matter which arose from a wrongful petition non-payment action initiated by the landlord of a property which I leased. I would appreciate any assistance or suggestions with regard to the following:
1. Where can I find the citation(s) of law governing the requirement of the petitioner to allege whether or not the subject premises are a multiple dwelling? - My attorney in the first round cited the wrong section of local law, which is part of why I lost the case. Court clerks have comfirmed that it is a petition requirement, but were unable to direct me to the section of law from which that requirement is derived. I believe that the requirement must be in either the New York City Rules and Regulations, or the New York City Administrative Code,although it is possible that it might be in the NYC Charter, all of which are ominous tomes, with hard to decipher indexes. I have already carefully examined the New York State Multiple Dwelling Law, Real Property Law, and Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law, and I simply cannot find it.
2. Does a landlord have an obligation to reveal to the tenant/prospective tenant that the property in question has one or more Permanent Lis Pendens filings registered against it, that the property has been permanently enjoined as a place where narcotics violations occur, and/or that there is a substantial accumulation of unpaid taxes on the property? If so, where might I find the citations of law governing these requirements?
