16-128. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, res, v. NELSON BERNAL-HERNANDEZ, def-app — Judgment of conviction (Abraham Clott, J.), rendered April 8, 2015, affirmed.The verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v. Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348-349 [2007]). The credibility issues raised by defendant were properly placed before the trier of fact and, after considering the relative force of the conflicting testimony and the competing inferences that may be drawn therefrom, we find no reason on the record before us to disturb the court’s determination to credit the arresting officers’ testimony rather than defendant’s.THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.February 26, 201817-411. SUNG YOON KIM, pet-lan-app, v. MARIANNA HETTINGER, res-ten-res, -and- “JOHN DOE,” AND/OR “JANE DOE,” res-unt — Order (John H. Stanley, J.), dated July 21, 2017, modified by denying tenant’s motion, reinstating the petition, and remanding the matter to Civil Court for further proceedings consistent with this decision; as modified, order affirmed, with $10 costs to landlord-appellant.The notice of nonrenewal underlying this owner-occupancy holdover proceeding stated, inter alia, that landlord intends to “recover possession of all of the apartments within the building, including the subject apartment” and convert the five-story, nine-apartment building to a single-family dwelling for herself, her named husband and their two children. In this connection, the notice set forth in detail the contemplated use of the space on a floor-by-floor basis, reflecting landlord’s plan to create a single, integrated structure that would serve as a primary residence for herself and her immediate family. The notice also stated the current residence of landlord and her family, alleging that they reside in an apartment on Riverside Blvd. in New York City.In such particularized form, the notice of nonrenewal utilized by landlord fully complied with the specificity requirements of Rent Stabilization Code (9 NYCRR) §2524.2(b) and served as a proper predicate for this owner-occupancy holdover proceeding (see Hirsch v. Stewart, 63 AD3d 74 [2009]; Rudd v. Sharff, 30 Misc 3d 35 [2010]; see also Pultz v. Economakis, 10 NY3d 542 [2008]). Information concerning such matters as the size of landlord’s current residence can readily be acquired through a bill of particulars (see Pinehurst Constr. Corp. v. Schlesinger, 38 AD3d 474, 475 [2007]; City of New York v. Valera, 216 AD2d 237 [1995]), and any further evidentiary matters such as the feasibility of landlord’s proposed renovations and the status of landlord’s recovery of other apartments in her building-wide renovation plan are more appropriately explored during the discovery phase of the proceeding (see Matter of Giancola v. Middleton, 73 AD3d 1056, 1057 [2010]; McGoldrick v. DeCruz, 195 Misc 2d 414, 415 [2003]; Rudd v. Sharff, 30 Misc 3d at 459; see also Bouton v. De Almo, 12 Misc 3d 132[A], 2006 NY Slip Op 51166[U] [App Term, 1st Dept 2006] [court policy favors disclosure in owner use proceedings]). A predicate notice in a holdover summary proceeding need not lay bare a landlord’s trial proof, and will be upheld in the face of a “jurisdictional” challenge where, as here, the notice is “as a whole sufficient[ly] adequate[] to advise…tenant and to permit it to frame a defense” (Rascoff/Zsyblat Org. v. Directors Guild of Am., 297 AD2d 241, 242 [2002], lv dismissed in part and denied in part 99 NY2d 573 [2003]; see Hughes v. Lenox Hill Hosp., 226 AD2d 4, 18 [1996], lv denied 90 NY2d 829 [1997]).In reinstating the petition, we do not pass upon the landlord’s application for payment of interim use and occupancy, a matter not reached below. Our disposition is without prejudice to the landlord’s right to renew its application for such relief in the Civil Court.THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.February 26, 201815-383. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, res, v. AIMEE LEMOULLEC, def-app — Judgment of conviction (Gilbert C. Hong, J.), rendered October 28, 2014, reversed, on the facts and as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, and the information is dismissed.The verdict convicting defendant of obstructing governmental administration in the second degree was against the weight of the evidence. Under these particular circumstances, “an acquittal would not have been unreasonable” as there was conflicting testimony and a lack of evidence beyond a reasonable doubt (see People v. Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348-349 [2007]; People v. Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495 [1987]). In view of the significant inconsistencies in the testimony of the two testifying police officers regarding what transpired prior to their arrest of defendant and her two companions, who were approaching their parked vehicle after attending a show at Webster Hall, and whether the officers, who had been participating in an unrelated undercover drug operation while sitting in the vehicle parked directly in front of defendant’s vehicle, adequately identified themselves to defendant as police officers, the evidence was insufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that defendant “intentionally…prevent[ed] or attempt[ed] to prevent [the police] from performing an official function, by means of intimidation, physical force or interference” (Penal Law §195.05). In performing our de novo review of the evidence in this close case, we note that defendant’s friend/codefendant was acquitted of the same charge, based upon essentially the same evidence (see People v. Rayam, 94 NY2d 557, 560 n [2000]). This acquittal, even if not repugnant or inconsistent with defendant’s conviction, indicates that the jury did not credit the police testimony “in toto” (see People v. Roman, 217 AD2d 431, 432 [1995]).In view of our determination, we reach no other issue.THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.February 26, 201817-433. WELL DONE REALTY, LLC, pet-lan-res, v. BENJAMIN EPPS AND AMY MONROE-EPPS, res-ten-app, -and- SUE MONROE, “JOHN DOE” AND “JANE DOE,” res-unt-app — Final judgment (Jean T. Schneider, J.), entered February 7, 2017, affirmed, with $25 costs.Undertenant Sue Monroe failed to raise any triable issue of fact with respect to her proffered succession defense. It is undisputed that while the record tenants of the subject rent stabilized apartment began residing elsewhere in 2003, they continued to execute renewal leases for the apartment extending through September 2015 and continued to pay rent by checks in their names during that time. Thus, tenants “cannot be found to have permanently vacated the apartment at any time prior to the expiration of the last lease renewal on [September 30, 2015]” (Third Lenox Terrace Assoc. v. Edwards, 91 AD3d 532, 533 [2012]). In the absence of any evidence tending to show that undertenant Monroe, the mother of tenant Amy Monroe-Epps, “resided with” tenants in the subject apartment during the two-year period immediately preceding the tenants’ permanent vacatur (Rent Stabilization Code [9 NYCRR] §2523.5[b][1]), her succession claim must fail (see Third Lenox Terrace Assoc. v. Edwards, 91 AD3d at 533; Mia Terra Realty Corp. v. Sloan, 57 Misc 3d 141[A], 2017 NY Slip Op 51360[U] [App Term, 1st Dept 2017).Nor has undertenant raised a triable issue as to whether landlord recognized her as a tenant in her own right or waived the right to contest her continued occupancy (see 117 W. 57th St. Realty Corp. v. Estate of Hultgren, 205 AD2d 363 [1994], revg for reasons stated in dissenting op. of McCooe, J., NYLJ, Sept 14, 1993, at 21, col 1, 1993 WL 393073 [App Term, 1st Dept 1993]; 206 W. 104th St. LLC v.

The court is satisfied that a diligent and exhaustive search has been made, without success, to ascertain the existence of other distributees, that more than three years have elapsed since decedent’s death, and that no claim to a distributive share in the estate has been made by any person other than the paternal distributees. It is, therefore, determined that there are no distributees other than decedent’s paternal distributees (SCPA 2225).Accordingly, the Commissioner of Finance of the City of New York, after deducting fees and charges as provided by law, is directed to pay the funds on deposit plus accrued interest in equal shares to Stanley Weinberg, Ellis Weinberg, Stanley Weinberg, David Lee Weinberg, and Kenneth Juvelier, as Administrator of the Estate of Rosalyn Weinberg Juvelier.Settle decree with a provision for fixing the compensation of counsel for the Public Administrator.Dated: February 23, 2018ESTATE OF ABRAHAM ABRAMOVSKY, Deceased (07/2675/A/B/C) — The petition of Aviva Abramovsky, administrator of the estate of Abraham Abramovsky, is granted to the extent petitioner seeks: (1) leave to compromise a cause of action for wrongful death, (2) allocation of 100 percent of the net proceeds to the cause of action for wrongful death, and (3) settlement of her account.
