New York Court of Appeals
Theodore F. Whitmarsh, Appellant and Respondent v. William E. Farnell, Respondent and Appellant
January 13, 1949298 N.Y. 336
Summary
The Court of Appeals held that the New York City Rent Control Law applied to the eviction proceeding because the warrant had not been executed before the law’s effective date, and that the landlord was not required to serve a thirty‑day notice of termination, so the petition was dismissed and the lower court orders reversed.
