Any person or persons, jointly or severally aggrieved by any final order may seek to have such an order reviewed by the Supreme Court in the manner prescribed by Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules and as otherwise provided for in the laws of the State of New York.
Section 12-157 of Tuckahoe's Code of Ordinances establishes a judicial review pathway for anyone harmed by a final order issued under Chapter 12. The mechanism for that review is an Article 78 proceeding in New York Supreme Court, a standard state-law procedure for challenging government decisions. The provision applies to any aggrieved party, whether a single individual or multiple parties acting together or separately.

Under Section 12-157, a landlord who receives a final order under Chapter 12 and believes it to be improper has the option of seeking review in New York Supreme Court through an Article 78 proceeding. Operators who pursue this path generally ensure they understand the procedural requirements and strict deadlines that govern Article 78 petitions under New York's Civil Practice Law and Rules. Consulting with a licensed New York attorney familiar with municipal housing law is a common step for property owners considering this route.
