Port Jervis, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 430 § 430-8
Procedures
Operative Text
The procedures applicable to summary proceedings to recover possession of real property under state law shall be applicable to any proceeding brought under this article.
Section 430-8 of Port Jervis, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 430 establishes that the same procedural rules used in standard state-law summary proceedings to recover real property apply equally to any proceeding brought under this article. In other words, the article does not create a separate or unique procedural framework; instead, it borrows the existing state-law process. This means the timelines, notice requirements, and court procedures familiar from ordinary eviction or possession cases govern these proceedings as well.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Section 430-8, landlords and property managers initiating a proceeding under this article must follow the same procedural steps required by New York state law for summary possession proceedings. Compliant operators typically ensure that all notices, filings, and court appearances conform to the state-law framework, since no separate local procedure is established. Familiarity with New York's summary proceeding rules is therefore essential when pursuing any action under Chapter 430.

Section 430-8 means that tenants facing a proceeding brought under this article have access to the same procedural protections that apply in standard New York state-law summary possession cases. This includes the right to receive proper notice and to respond within the timeframes set by state law. Tenants who believe procedural requirements were not followed may raise that as a defense in the proceeding, and tenant-rights organizations can help explain what those state-law procedures require.
