Weather and Housing Court:
If you missed your court date because of the weather conditions on 1/26 or 1/27/15, the court will send you a notice telling you of your new court date. You can look on ecourts (https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/housing/) and find the new date for your case. You will need the index number or the name of the parties. You can also go to the clerk’s office information window and find out your new court date.
Check the court’s website for more information: http://www.nycourts.gov/courts/nyc/civil/
Housing Court Holiday closing: The courts will be closed on Thursday, February 12, 2015 for Lincoln’s Birthday and on Monday, February 16, 2015 for Presidents’ Day.
