FAILURE TO INCLUDE ALL THE INFORMATION REQUIRED BY LIEN LAW 201 IN THE NOTICE OF SALE DID NOT WARRANT CANCELLATION OF THE LIENS (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined that the deficiencies in the notice of sale did not warrant cancellation of the liens:

Pursuant to Lien Law § 201-a, within 10 days after service of a notice of sale, the owner or any person entitled to notice may commence a special proceeding to determine the validity of a lien. Here, while service upon the petitioners of the notices of sale was in accordance with the proprietary lease and the cooperative by-laws, the notices of sale did not contain a statement setting forth “[t]he nature of the debt or the agreement under which the lien arose, with an itemized statement of the claim and the time when due,” as required under Lien Law § 201. Nevertheless, the deficiencies in the notices of sale did not provide a basis for cancellation of the liens … . Matter of Ger v Saxony Towers Realty Corp., 2022 NY Slip Op 06243, Second Dept 11-9-22

Practice Point: Lien law 201 requires the notice sale to state “[t]he nature of the debt or the agreement under which the lien arose, with an itemized statement of the claim and the time when due.” The failure to include that information, however, does not warrant cancellation of the lien.
