Attorney Andrew Lieb Offers New CLE for Attorneys: Proving Emotional Distress Damages in a Discrimination Case
Proving Emotional Distress Damages in a Discrimination Case
Discrimination law is top of mind for most attorneys and businesses throughout the country. We all like to discuss the latest news headlines and debate our culture wars to determine who is right and wrong, but in reality, that discussion misses the point. The real question is what is the cost of being wrong. For example, while pecuniary damages (such as back pay and front pay) are known and tangible, have you considered non-pecuniary damages in your case evaluation? In discrimination law, the largest category of damages is emotional distress, which can vary depending on the proof you have and your ability to prove it in court. In this course, Andrew Lieb will teach you how to gather and prove these intangible damages, which will make or break your discrimination case.

New York Tenants Have New Tool When Landlords Fail to Fix Unsafe Conditions
Sketchy landlords beware!
New York's Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law Article 7-C has been added by A3241 to give tenants and municipalities a new tool in their arsenal to address persistent unsafe conditions that are neglected by their landlords.
Applicable
in both residential and commercial mixed use properties, the new law, which is immediately effective, allows for
receivership proceedings where a landlord has failed to remedy “conditions
dangerous to life, health, or safety.” Basically, this means a court may
appoint an independent “receiver” who is empowered to manage and redirect rent
deposits towards fixing an issue that a landlord has neglected to sufficiently
address.
However, what's interesting is the flip side of the law. It's yet another reminder that tenants should not unilaterally withhold rent or make repairs, outside of their rights in their specific lease, when there are habitability issues at the premises. Instead, they should follow the law and have their rental money deposited with the Court. Doing it otherwise is technically a grounds for eviction. Simple stated, there is a procedure when a landlord doesn't fix property and you, as a tenant, can't decide to just not pay when it's not being fixed.
This procedure of depositing rent into Court and having a receiver appointed was formerly available only in New York City, but now applies statewide.
