Establishes a subpart to hear housing matters related to buildings of thirty-five or less units
This bill creates a dedicated subpart within New York City's housing court to handle legal disputes involving buildings with 35 or fewer residential units. It directly affects landlords and tenants in small buildings by directing these cases to this specialized court division instead of general housing court. The change modifies court structure but does not alter housing laws or tenant protections.
