When a notice to cure an alleged violation of a commercial lease is served by the
Landlord, a Yellowstone injunction is a remedy available to commercial tenants
through the New York State Supreme Court to freeze the time to cure pending
litigation. It is often useful for tenants when their commercial landlord alleges
some sort of lease violation, or default under the lease. Obtaining a Yellowstone
injunction allows you to keep the lease effective until a judge determines whether
or not the alleged breach of lease was serious enough to be a reason for lease
termination, or whether the tenant violated the lease at all. Yellowstone
injunctions can be an effective way to keep you in your current location and your
lease in effect.
A Yellowstone injunction is a way that the court maintains the status quo. This
prohibits the landlord from terminating a lease while also maintaining the tenant’s
right to cure the alleged problem without the expiration of the notice to cure. If
you are unable or fail to secure a Yellowstone injunction, the notice to cure would
end up expiring before the judge can make a decision regarding the alleged
default. This would allow the landlord to terminate the lease without a judge’s
determination. To protect yourself from this action, team up with a skilled lawyer
