New York Court of Appeals

Rodolitz v. Neptune Paper Prods.

July 1, 196822 N.Y.2d 383

Summary

The Court held that the lease’s tax‑apportionment clause requires the first three years of the lease term—beginning upon occupancy—to be used in averaging assessments, thereby affirming the lower court’s calculation, and dismissed the defendant’s cross‑appeal as untimely under CPLR 5512.
