Defendant's submission of documentation of alleged improvements to the apartment after McKinney vacated do not constitute documentary evidence supporting dismissal because the permissible increase based on those improvements alleged by defendant ($335.08) only increased the rent above the high rent vacancy amount under the law at the time if the $1,650 figure is used as the initial legal regulated rent. Because plaintiff has sufficiently called into question the legality of the 2000 stipulation setting that initial legal regulated rent, I would vote to affirm the motion court's denial of defendant's motion to dismiss on that basis.THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
