Co-op's Fact Findings Held Binding on Eviction Court
September 02, 2003
<b><i>Part One of a Two-Part Article.</b></i>This commentary discusses ' critically ' a rule recently adopted by a unanimous Court of Appeals in a case in which a housing cooperative was attempting to evict a tenant deemed objectionable by his fellow shareholders. <i>40 W. 67th St. Corp. v. Pullman</i> (5/13/03). In order to understand fully the significance of the <i>Pullman</i> rule, it must be viewed in context. The general subject is the power of a landlord to terminate a tenancy based on a lease provision authorizing such action if the tenant becomes objectionable. More specifically, the issue is what role the courts are to play in determining whether or not the tenant did or did not do the things that he is accused of doing, which things, we will assume, all would agree would render him objectionable.

Alleged harassers may not be retaliated against for participating in the investigation of harassment against them, according to the Second Circuit in a ruling of first impression. <i>Deravin v. Kerik</i>, 335 F.3d 195 (2d Cir. 2003). In doing so, the court held that "defending oneself against charges of discrimination - to the extent that such defense involves actual participation in a Title VII proceeding or investigation - is 'protected activity' within the scope" of the participation clause of Title VII.
Be Wary of Rule 54(d)'s Costs Provision
September 01, 2003
<b><i>Costs Are Awardable, and Are Being Awarded, Against Plaintiffs</i></b> Plaintiffs' employment lawyers contemplating bringing Title VII or other discrimination suits have long felt secure in the knowledge that, even if they lose at trial or at the summary judgment stage, their client will not be assessed attorney's fees. This may not be the case.

  • Surveys in Patent Infringement Litigation: The Next Frontier
    Most experienced intellectual property attorneys understand the significant role surveys play in trademark infringement and other Lanham Act cases, but relatively few are likely to have considered the use of such research in patent infringement matters. That could soon change in light of the recent admission of a survey into evidence in <i>Applera Corporation, et al. v. MJ Research, Inc., et al.</i>, No. 3:98cv1201 (D. Conn. Aug. 26, 2005). The survey evidence, which showed that 96% of the defendant's customers used its products to perform a patented process, was admitted as evidence in support of a claim of inducement to infringe. The court admitted the survey into evidence over various objections by the defendant, who had argued that the inducement claim could not be proven without the survey.
