FRANK DINARDO JR. AND OTHERS t/a ONE SYLVAN ROAD NORTH ASSOCIATES v. LARK INTERNATIONAL LTD.

Citation

FRANK DINARDO JR. AND OTHERS t/a ONE SYLVAN ROAD NORTH ASSOCIATES v. LARK INTERNATIONAL LTD.
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCA14565/1998

No arguable case that the US Federal District Court remand was procured by fraud or concealment: at the time of remand the Housing Court Action's amount in controversy was only $13,125 and did not include the 1992 rents or later-claimed attorney's fees; attorney's fees were not shown to have been incurred then; therefore the US judgment is final and enforceable and the defendant failed to raise a triable issue to resist summary judgment.
