lack of heat
I am in asituation whereby i lived in an apt without heat -the dept of health acted negligently -closed case by mistake and a judge who ruled on the case took the opinion of dept of health official and chose to ignore the professional opinions of licensed HVAC and electricians as ordered by the county--what i see as old boys and the like If a jude makes a decison and has the facts incorrect ie that the landlord could do the repair without a license to do so -and it is the county law not mine --what is my next step The judges' response was not in sync with county laws and a mess to read it truly made no sense in parts on top of the fact he showed up in court in a judge robe and shorts -had to get that in --sorry --his opinion conflicts with the laws of the county in some areas and is protecting the negligence of his friend in the dept of health --yet other county officials ie building inspector know the doh was in error and told me my lawyer was not even helping

Get the written decision.

Go to the pro se office at your nearest ny supreme court of ____ county and ask them for materials to help you appeal to the appellate term.
