OPINION OF THE COURT

William D. Friedmann, J.

This summary holdover proceeding (RPAPL 711) places in focus whether the Civil Court of the City of New York has the jurisdiction and equitable or statutory power in the context of landlord’s petition for eviction of a tenant, to evict the petitioning landlord from a basement apartment in the same two-family premises, and further enjoin landlord from thereafter entering the two-family premises, pending his actual regaining of physical possession at the conclusion of a court-ordered stay (RPAPL 753).
