| #9 In NYC, everybody knows somebody who has a friend who hangs out with a guy who can get a knee cap job for a couple K. Barris is just a nice guy. |

| #7 While I agree with you, Zen (getting the mailing address right is crucial in law like this), it probably is a "law," it's still ridiculous that it took 4 years to rule on the case, and then, to toss it because of some "technicality." Of course, I've (always) lived in the South. They (we) just don't put up w/ crap like that down here. She'd either be in jail, dead, or moved within weeks down here. Big fences (and bigger lots) make good neighbors and all. |

| #4 Serving of notice must be done to the home address in Ohio as well. There can be no question that the tenant was informed. |

| #3 . . . loud, persistent, furious, all-hours rants . . . Well, that's what you get for moving in next to Democratic Underground. |

| #2 Kapnick found that the board's service of its 2002 notice to cure to Weitzner's post office box -- the address Weitzner's stationary directs correspondents to use -- constituted a fatal defect, notwithstanding the board's subsequent service to Weitzner's apartment. According to my own firsthand experience with landlord tenant law, Kapnick is most likely correct (if NY law is the same as CA). Were the judge to allow this improper serving of notice, any ruling of her's would probably be overturned on appeal very quickly. Therefore, her finding of impropriety is most likely the only alternative. Whichever attorney Trump Plaza hired to serve notice, who then subsequently did not ensure following the correct "nail and mail" sequence of service should be held liable for the prolongation of this case. Why they didn't spend the extra one or two hundred dollars to personally serve Weitzner with an impartial witness present is beyond comprehension. This loon most likely would already have been ejected years ago had they done so. |

| #1 Shit, Barris should still have a ton of money. Have him find out where Judge Kapnick lives, buy the house next door, and give it to his lunatic neighbor as a peace offering. Hell, if it was me, I'd even pay her moving expenses. Enjoy your new neighbor, your honor... |
