Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Article 78 proceeding?
An Article 78 proceeding is a legal process that allows individuals to challenge decisions made by government agencies, public officials, or municipal bodies. It’s often used to address cases where the decision was arbitrary, exceeded authority, or violated procedural requirements under 78 of the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules.
What issues can be resolved through Article 78 in New York?
Article 78 proceedings can address actions such as denial of permits, revocation of professional licenses, or disciplinary actions by the housing authority. These cases often arise when decisions are not supported by substantial evidence.
What is injunctive relief, and when is it used?
Injunctive relief includes measures like temporary restraining orders (TROs) and preliminary injunctions, which are issued to prevent harm or maintain the status quo while a legal dispute is resolved. These remedies are often sought in cases involving irreparable injury.
How do temporary restraining orders (TROs) work?
A TRO is a short-term measure granted by the court to prevent imminent harm. In New York, TROs are frequently used in disputes involving property, employment, or other matters where delays could lead to significant damage.
What are the costs associated with filing an Article 78 proceeding?
Clients often ask, “How much does it cost to file an Article 78?” Costs vary based on factors like case complexity and attorney fees, but court filing fees and document preparation are standard expenses. We provide transparent estimates to ensure no surprises.
What happens if an agency decision is found unlawful?
If the court rules in your favor, the agency may be required to reverse its decision, reconsider the case, or take corrective action as directed by the court. Remedies depend on the specifics of the Article 78 proceeding.
