Greenfield, J.), entered October 6, 2025, which granted petitioner's motion to strike her jury demand in a holdover summary proceeding.</p> <p></p>[*1] <p><b>Per Curiam.</b></p> <p>Order (Allison R. Greenfield, J.), entered October 6, 2025, affirmed, without costs. </p> <p>Petitioner's motion to strike respondent Marzullo's jury demand was properly granted, since her parent's original lease, to which respondent sought succession rights, contained both an enforceable jury waiver provision (<i>see P &amp; J Hous. Partners, LLC v Alvarado</i>, 34 Misc 3d 130[A], 2011 NY Slip Op 52310[U] [App Term, 1st Dept 2011]; <i>Alden Raleigh Estates v King</i>, 2003 NY Slip Op 51160[U][App Term, 2d &amp; 11th Jud Dists 2003]; <i>Fairfax Mgt. Corp. v Taveras</i>, 2001 NY Slip Op 40478[U] [App Term, 1st Dept 2001]), and a provision which stated that the original lease shall bind the landlord, its successors and assigns, and the tenant and the heir and personal representatives of the tenant (<i>see 245 Realty Assoc. v Sussis</i>, 243 AD2d 29, 33 [1998]). </p> <p>Contrary to respondent's contentions, petitioner's motion to strike her jury demand was not untimely (<i>see Moyal v Sleppin</i>, 139 AD3d 605 [2016]). Nor has respondent shown that she was prejudiced by petitioner's delay in moving to strike the demand (<i>see Fordham Univ. v Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co., </i>145 AD2d 332 [1988]; <i>A.J. Fritschy v Chase Manhattan Bank</i>, 36 AD2d 600 [1971]). </p> <p>Respondent's remaining contentions are either improperly raised for the first time on appeal or without merit.</p> <p>THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.</p> <p>I concur I concur I concur</p> <p>Decision Date: April 15, 2026</p> </div>
