Let Freedom (of Contract) Ring: Yellowstone Waivers Are Enforceable

Joshua Kopelowitz & Richard Corde

This is the third in a series of articles exploring whether parties to a commercial lease can contractually waive a tenant's right to seek a Yellowstone injunction. In a recent ruling, the Court of Appeals, in 159 MP Corp. v Redbridge Bedford, LLC, left no doubt that a contractual waiver of a right to seek a declaratory judgment and/or a Yellowstone injunction in a commercial lease is enforceable.

Landlord Considerations When Drafting Assignment and Subletting Provisions

Mark Morfopoulos

Restricting a tenant's right to transfer the property it is leasing to a third party is a key component to any lease. Many lenders require landlords to obtain lender consent before the transfer is effective. Failure to obtain such consent could lead to a landlord's default under the terms and conditions of the loan documents, so it is imperative for a landlord to review its loan documents each time it receives a request from a tenant to transfer its interest under the lease.

Court of Appeals Upholds Privatization of Interior Landmark

Stewart E. Sterk

The New York City Landmarks Preservation Law authorizes the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) to designate interior landmarks as well as exterior landmarks. An interior site is eligible for designation only if the public has access to the site, but once the LPC has designated the interior landmark, can the LPC authorize its owner to close the landmark to public access?
