Super Bowl Ad: Audi Spicer SEAL Raid Story 'B.S.', Former Obama Official Says Knife-Wielding Man Shot Near Louvre, Paris Conway Walks Back 'Bowling Green Massacre' Comment Conservative Speaker Sparks NYU ProtestsNEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — A Manhattan building superintendent said he was fired for refusing to snoop in tenants’ apartments and mailboxes. As CBS2’s Ali Bauman reported, Jorge Perez has been the super at The Ironton, at 510 Amsterdam Ave. near 85th Street, for eight years.

He also has been a handyman at Pine Management’s 30 Manhattan properties for more than a decade. But now, Perez is out of a job and could soon be out of a home, and he said it is all because he refused to snoop. “Going inside tenant apartments; photographing personal items in the medicine cabinets; any paper a tenant may have laying around, photographing that; dry cleaning in the closet,” Perez said. Perez has filed a lawsuit against Pine Management, and told CBS2’s Bauman that when he refused to carry out work orders from management for snoop tests — with instructions to “pop a breaker in the apartment” – he was fired. “They would tell the tenants we’ere going to supposedly look for a leak, but there’s no leak,” he said. “They just want me to get into the apartment to take pictures of, you know, anything I could find on the tenant.” In the lawsuit, Perez claimed he was instructed to gather evidence that could be used to evict tenants.

He believes management wanted to check if the name on the mail address matched the name on the rent check.handyman service salt lake city “Of course it is scary,” said a rent-controlled tenant in the building. business for sale dulwich“Why would they want to do something like that?”business for sale kraaifontein With renovations under way in the building, Perez said he believes management is trying to push out rent-regulated tenants for fair market ones.business for sale radcliff ky Mercedes Lagrule has lived in her apartment for more than 50 years, and it is rent regulated. business for sale clwyd

CBS2 tried reaching out to Pine Management many times, but voicemails and emails were unanswered. When CBS2’s Bauman went to the Pine Management office, a man there said, “I’m told we won’t comment on pending litigation.” And now that he is no longer the building super, Perez faces an eviction of his own. Perez’s attorney said she also reported the allegations to the New York State Attorney General’s Office, in hopes that action will be taken against Perez’s former employer. 18 W 18th St, New York, New York 10011 Students attending this class will learn how to juggle for brain & body fitness using an easy step by step method, and learn about the surprising benefits of juggling for brain and body health.
