U.S. (spec. NYC) Housing Law question for anyone who has useful knowledge…
The ceiling in Uncle's apartment is leaking in multiple places.
The landlord claim it's Uncle's responsibility to pay people to move his stuff out of the way from where the leaks are so they can make the repairs.
I think paying to clear the area should be the landlord's responsibility since expenses to fix code violations should be their responsibility.
Who's right?

When plaintiff’s lawyer indicated that a motion to compel may be necessary, opposing counsel “performed a mocking mimicry of [his] words” and then stated: “Oh, are you going to give me a spanking?” ...
