A New York Affidavit In Opposition (Landlord-Tenant) is a document used in proceedings related to landlord-tenant disputes. It is a sworn statement that is submitted to the court to oppose the landlord’s application to terminate the tenancy or evict the tenant. The affidavit contains detailed information about the landlord-tenant relationship, such as lease terms, payments made, and other relevant facts. The tenant has the opportunity to present his or her side of the story in the affidavit and to demonstrate why the landlord’s application should be denied. In New York, there are two types of Affidavit In Opposition: Nonpayment Proceedings and Holdover Proceedings. The Nonpayment Proceeding is used when the tenant has failed to pay rent and the landlord is seeking to evict the tenant. The Holdover Proceeding is used when the landlord seeks to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenant for some other breach of the lease agreement or for other reasons. Both types of Affidavit In Opposition must be filed with the court in order to oppose the landlord’s application.
