Tenant appeals from 1) an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, New York County (Alberto M. Gonzalez, J.), dated June 7, 2024, which granted her motion to vacate a default final judgment solely to the extent of allowing her additional time to submit recertification documents and 2) an order (same court and Judge) dated December 9, 2024, which declined to sign an order to show cause vacating the judgment. Dominique Jordan (respondent "Jane Doe") appeals from an order (same court and Judge) dated January 3, 2025, which denied her motion to vacate a default final judgment in a holdover summary proceeding.
Per Curiam.
Orders (Alberto M. Gonzalez, J.) dated June 7, 2024 and January 3, 2025, respectively, affirmed, without costs. Appeal from order (Alberto M. Gonzalez, J.), entered on or about December 9, 2024, dismissed, without costs, as taken from a nonappealable paper.
We find no abuse of discretion in the denial of the motions to vacate the default final judgment and warrant of eviction issued in this holdover proceeding. Tenant failed to complete the income recertifications required under the Federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), despite numerous opportunities to cure and multiple orders and warnings by the court.
Movant's remaining contentions are either improperly raised for the first time on appeal or are without merit.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
