New York's Highest Court Reverses, Finds Landlord Could Be Liable for Tenant's Dog Bite
Successful appeal to the Court of Appeals, the highest court in the State of New York, which unanimously reversed two courts below and held that a landlord could be held liable for injury caused by tenant's pit bull. See Baisi v. Gonzalez, 97 N.Y.2d 694, 739 N.Y.S.2d 92 (Ct. App. 2002).
