Full Text
758 charsThe jury waiver is valid as against all claims arising out of the leasehold, save those items proscribed by statute, specifically actions for personal injury and property damages (Real Property Law, § 259-c). While the statute codified common and case law with regard to the warranty of habitability, it did not specifically prohibit the implementation of jury waiver provisions in trials dealing with breach of warranty of habitability claims. Further, although the statute prohibits waiver of the right to bring such an action, it does not negate the fact that the warranty arises out of and by reason of the leasehold between the parties hereto. The jury waiver may therefore be invoked regarding a counterclaim for the breach of warranty of habitability.
