How do I answer a petition for non-payment of rent in ulster county ny? We sought assistance from legal services. We qualify income wise, but they have a conflict because they've represented the landlord in the past. The judge mentioned something about filing a motion. How would we do that? We're due back in court 7/14.
Thanks!:confused:

Ask the court clerk.

Thanks scott. I actually already went to the court clerk, and she referred me to the local bar association with the warning that motions need to follow a certain format or they'll be rejected. I read in the ny state landlord's guide that I could make a written answer, but I don't know if that needs to be in the form of a motion.
