Tenant Didn't Pay Rent, As Required by Stipulation

(Decision submitted by Philip A. Rosen of the Queens law firm of Horing & Welikson, P.C., attorneys for the landlord.) Landlord sued to evict tenant for chronic nonpayment of rent. Landlord and tenant signed a stipulation of settlement in which tenant agreed to pay her rent by the 10th day of each month. Tenant defaulted on the payments, and landlord asked the court for possession. The court ruled against landlord at first, but later ruled for landlord when tenant defaulted a second time.
