OPINION OF THE COURT
Louis B. York, J.
This is the 25th motion in an action begun nearly 12 years ago to require defendants to comply with statutory requirements for the removal of lead-based paint hazards for residential buildings in New York City. "Patience may be a virtue, but from Genesis to the fulfillment of the Apocalypse, or the coming of the Messiah, is too long a period of time to have to wait for an administrative agency to comply with its duty to enforce the law” (Matter of New York Assn. of Convenience Stores v Urbach, 170 Misc 2d 445, 449 [Sup Ct, Albany County 1996]).
