RANDOLPH v. ST. HILL

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Feb 22, 1999

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

Administrative Code of the City of New York ยง 27-2013 (h) creates a rebuttable presumption that in any apartment in a multiple dwelling erected in the City of New York before 1960, in which a child who is six years of age or under resides, any peeling paint or similar surface-coating material comprises a hazardous lead condition ( see, Juarez v. Wavecrest Mgt. Team, 88 N.Y.2d 628, 647). In the case at bar, there was no proof that a child age six or under resided at the subject apartment.

The appellant's remaining contentions are without merit.

O'BRIEN, J. P., RITTER, THOMPSON and GOLDSTEIN, JJ., concur.
