On June 24, real estate partner Salvatore Gogliormella and associate Peter Borock gave a presentation at the request of the New York State Judicial Institute to the New York State Unified Court System’s law clerks and court attorneys. The presentation, “Abandonment of Leases and Abatement of Rent During the Coronavirus Pandemic,” covered topics such as whether tenants can cancel their leases or pay less rent during the pandemic, what types of commercial leasing lawsuits are expected to be filed, background legal principles for such cases and how judges and their staff can help parties arrive at settlements.
