CLASSIFICATION OF THE PROPERTY AS COMMERCIAL IN TAX FILINGS DID NOT PRECLUDE THE APPLICABILITY OF THE ONE-OR-TWO-FAMILY HOME EXEMPTION TO LABOR LAW 240 (1) (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department, reversing (modifying) Supreme Court, determined that defendant’s (Artifact’s) motion for summary judgment on the Labor Law 240 (1) cause of action should have been granted. The one-or-two-family home exemption applied, even though the property was classified as commercial in tax filings:

Contrary to plaintiff’s contention, Artifact’s classification of the property as commercial in certain tax filings does not estop it from relying upon the exemption in this action … . The Internal Revenue Code’s definition of a residential property is considerably narrower than the scope of the one- or two-family home exemption to liability under section 240 (1) … , and, as such, Artifact’s tax declarations are not ” logically incompatible’ ” with its current reliance upon that exemption … . Wood v Artifact Props., LLC, 2019 NY Slip Op 01030, Fourth Dept 2-8-19
