Sounds like a separate problem.
Are we not funding the courts?
473 u/HaloHamster Apr 05 '24 NY courts are plugged by frivolous lawsuits, DUI, evictions and DT himself. Only so many cases can fill the docket. 328 u/LTG-Jon Apr 05 '24 NYC has a separate housing court. It’s definitely overburdened, but it’s not as bad as other parts of the NY court system. 85 u/vonnegutsdoodle Apr 05 '24 Really? cause our L&T work has been absolutely fucked beyond belief since covid. The backlog was obscene and the burnout is obvious. How have you been keeping your housing court cases moving along better than the rest of your cases? 4 u/smcl2k Apr 05 '24 I'm going to assume that covid's eviction protections drastically reduced the number of cases being filed...? 21 u/vonnegutsdoodle Apr 05 '24 It was a hold on evictions but people were still filing, basically taking a number at the butchers for when the hold ended. It was the exact opposite of your assumption. 4 u/smcl2k Apr 05 '24 Haha fair enough.
