WILLIAMSBRIDGE 3067 REALTY LLC v. RAMOS (2025)

Supreme Court, Appellate Term, New York,

WILLIAMSBRIDGE-3067 REALTY LLC, Petitioner-Respondent, v. Guillermo RAMOS, Respondent-Appellant.

570904 /24

Decided: June 16, 2025

PRESENT: Brigantti, J.P., James, Perez, JJ.

Order (Edit Shkreli, J.), entered November 20, 2024, affirmed, with $10 costs.

Respondent's belated motion to dismiss the illegal lockout petition, made nearly one year after entry of an unappealed final judgment in petitioner's favor, was properly denied. By failing to pursue a direct appeal from the final judgment, respondent waived his present objections, including those related to petitioner's ownership of the property at issue (see 433 W. Assoc. v Murdock, 276 AD2d 360, 361 [2000]).

Nor do the issues now sought to be raised implicate the court's subject matter jurisdiction (see Jackson v New York City Hous. Auth., 88 Misc 2d 121 [App Term, 1st Dept 1976]; see also Matter of Fry v Village of Tarrytown, 89 NY2d 714, 718-719 [1997]). It is beyond dispute that Civil Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this summary proceeding under article 7 of the Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law (see NY Const Art VI, sec 15 [b]; CCA 204; RPAPL 701[1]).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
