Hey, BP tribe,I stumbled upon a truly fascinating recent court case: https://www.leagle.com/decisio...The case itself was devoted to a rather technical issue known as innocent spouse relief.

@Rob Chang  Ask for her last years W-2 and tax return and court docs on child support (if she chooses to use child support to qualify) to verify income. $3,600 a month child support?!

Can you cite a statute (in any state) that would support your claim that this prospect, who "feels like they aren't being treated well" will be able to 1) identify the statute in violation, and 2) successfully file a claim in civil court that "has a good chance of winning"?

@Jesus Moreno You can write just about anything you want into the lease; whether it holds up in court is a different story.

It surely helps to deter the attempt (kinda like a burglar alarm deterring a burglar, but the really good ones will by-pass it if the prize is worth it), but no guarantees and who knows what will happen in court.

I documented everything and cleaned house by way of notices to cease and quit- without having to go to court.

Try court to get a judgement against the tenants, but good luck collecting on it.

My suggestion is that you contact a good NY real estate attorney for advice.In my opinion the Clerk of the Court will not assist you in obtaining a release from the lender. 

Who owns what is normally spelled out in the Condo Bylaws and Declarations.  

Damages are what you could recover in court if you sued the tenant.
