See Unif. Residential Landlord & Tenant Act § 4.105(a) (Unif. Law Comm'n 1972) (amended 1974) (revised 2015) ("[T]he court from time to time may order the tenant to pay into court all or part of the rent accrued and thereafter accruing, and shall determine the amount due to each party.") (emphasis added). A circuit court is in the best position to assess the merits of each case and the parties' respective positions, and is in the best position to accommodate "the competing interests of the parties in affording necessary and fair protection to both parties." Eli Haddad Corp. v. Cal Redmond Studio , 102 A.D.2d 730, 476 N.Y.S.2d 864, 865-66 (1984) ; see also Unif. Residential Landlord & Tenant Act § 4.105 cmt. ("It is anticipated that upon filing of the counterclaim the court will enter the order deemed appropriate by him concerning the payment of rent in order to protect the interests of the parties.").
