Ms. Braxton stated that for a number of months she had complained to the landlord that the front door to her apartment was insecure and required replacement. This was never done. She stated that following her complaints an intruder forced open her front door and burglarized her apartment. Respondent asserts that she is entitled to damages for loss of property based on the landlord’s failure to replace the front door. Based on these allegations I set the matter down for an abatement hearing. Petitioner, 610 W. 142nd St. Owners Corp., objected to the hearing arguing that the alleged property damage was not recoverable in this nonpayment proceeding.
