Legal Question in Administrative Law in New York

Judge refuses respondent a trial
Recently, a friend was summoned to appear in housing court. At some juncture, the judge called on him and the plantiff to the front of the courtroom, saying she was aware of the case and she was not going to allow the case to go to trial. The judge, instead, presided over a conference, urging the respondent to agree to a stipulation of agreement. When my friend shared the matter with me, I realized the judg was wrong. The judge did not allow the respondent a trial and I shared that information with my friend.

So, we are making an effort to learn of the sections of the law which indicates individuals are allowed a trail. Would you be so kind as to refer us to the sections.

Would you be so kind as to refer us to other cases in which individuals were not allowed a trial and appealed and perhaps won?

Thank you.

Re: Judge refuses respondent a trial

I understand your dismay, but that is housing court. A zoo with arrogant judges who play god.

There is nothing you can do about this matter after the stipulation is signed and ordered. It is over.
