Summary

The bill requires New York courts to render a final judgment on petitions involving homes with up to four units within a set timeframe—six months for one‑ or two‑unit dwellings and twelve months for three‑ or four‑unit dwellings. The parties to the case may agree to waive these deadlines. The measure is intended to speed up landlord‑tenant disputes in small residential properties.
