`partition and other relief based on defendants’ ouster of Plaintiff from all beneficial use and
`
`enjoyment of the house which is the subject of this action (the “House”).
`
`4.
`
`In clear and unambiguous terms, the Court issued the Order requiring defendants
`
`to deposit all rent/use and occupancy from the House into the long standing joint House account,
`
`not into a “new” account of defendant Perlstein. Specifically, the Order provides, inter alia, that:
`
`... (b) all checks for rent/use & occupancy for the subject House
`
`shall be deposited into the long standing joint House account (not
`
`new account).
`
`5.
`
`The Order with Notice of Entry was duly served on counsel for defendants,
`
`including counsel for defendant Isaac Perlstein via NYSECF.
`
`6.
`
`7.
`
`From the outset, defendant Isaac Perlstein has refused to comply with the Order.
`
`The undersigned has repeatedly written to counsel for Isaac Perlstein demanding
`
`compliance with the Order, including letters dated March 28, 2017, March 30, 2017, April 5,
`
`2017 and June 6, 2017 — all to no avail. [Copies of the aforementioned letters and the June 7,
`
`2017 response letter from defendants’ counseli are annexed as Exhibit “B” hereto]
`
`8.
`
`Counsel for defendant Isaac Perlstein has verbally confirmed to the undersigned,
`
`on several occasions, that his client had not deposited the rent/use and occupancy into the joint
`
`house account as required.
`
`9.
`
`Instead, defendant Isaac Perlstein has violated the Order and deposit said
`
`sums into another account.

`Annexed hereto as Exhibit “C" is a copy of a Transaction History and account

`
`statements from Isaac Perlstein’s accountz, into which his counsel has advised that his client is
`
`depositing rents/use and occupancy from the House.
`
`11.
`
`The attached Transaction History shows that Isaac Perlstein is not only violating
`
`the Order by depositing rent/use and occupancy into an account other than the long standing joint
`
`House account as required by the Order, but that withdrawals are being made from the account
`
`without the consent of or even prior notice to the Plaintiff.
`
`12.
`
`Subsection (0) of the Order states:
`
`(0) no withdrawal or checks written from joint house account
`
`without consent of both Isaac Perlstein and Hady Rozenberg. All
`
`Requests for endorsing checks for deposit &/or for withdrawal or
`
`checks form joint account to be made in writing through counsel.
`

`
`No request for (or even prior notice of) withdrawals from the account have been
`
`received by Plaintiffs counsel as provided for in the Order.

`
`Not only is defendant Isaac Perlstein continuing to violate the Order by refusing

`
`consult with Plaintiff before making withdrawals against such amounts as required, but recent
`
`correspondence from defendants’ counsel has disclosed, for the first time, that defendant Isaac
`
`Perlstein has unilaterally, without consent of or even prior notice to Plaintiff, cancelled and

`replaced the insurance policy on the House which he represented was in place in his affirmation

`previously filed with the courts

`
`DEFENANT ISAAC PERLSTEIN’S CONDUCT PREJUDICES PLAINTIFF
`
`15.
`
`This action was commenced to address Plaintiffs wrongfully ouster from all
`
`beneficial use and enjoyment of the House which she co—owns. There is currently pending before
`
`this Court Plaintiff’s motion for, inter alia, appointment of a receiver, and defendants’4 pre—
`
`answer motion to dismiss.
`
`16.
`
`Yet, even commencement of litigation and a clear Order from the Court has not
`
`stOpped defendant Isaac Perlstein from disregarding all rights of Plaintiff.
`
`17.
`
`Plaintiff is a signatory to the long standing joint House account and therefore has
`
`access to and can monitor activity on said account.
`
`18.
`
`As Defendant Isaac Perlstein has chosen to disregard the Order and deposit
`
`monies in his account, Plaintiff is not able to monitor what rents/use and occupancy from the
`
`House are deposited and/or what payments are made from those amounts. She is left with only
`
`the information which defendant Isaac Perlstein chooses to share with her, when he chooses to
`
`share it.
`
`19.
`
`From the attached, it appears that since entry of the Order there were two deposits
`
`made in March 2017, one for $500.00 and one for $2,150.00, and then no further deposits until
`
`June 2017 when deposits of $6,450.00 and $1,000.00 were made.
`
`20.
`
`The foregoing leaves open a number of questions including: of what rents/use and
`
`occupancy have been collected; whether payments were made in April and May 2017; and, if so,
`
`what has become of those payments.
`
`21.
`
`The attached also shows debits of over $10,000.00 since entry of the Order
`
`4 The pre-answer motion to dismiss is made on behalf of all defendants other than defendant Efraim Waxman, who
`is represented by separate counsel.

`
`although, as set forth above, no prior consent from or even notice to Plaintiff was given.
`
`22.
`
`The action of defendant Isaac Perlstein in blatantly violating the Order leaves
`
`Plaintiff without any say or even knowledge of the income and expenses of her own property.
`
`23.
`
`Moreover, his unilateral cancellation and/or change of insurance puts her at
`
`further risk.
`
`CONCLUSION
`
`24.
`
`It is respectfully submitted that there is no factual issue but that defendant Isaac
`
`Perlstein has willfully violated the Order.
`
`25.
`
`The undersigned recognizes that contempt is a serious application not
`
`lightly
`
`requested but, after numerous communications with defendants’ counsel,
`
`it
`
`is clear
`
`that
`
`defendant Isaac Perlstein conduct,
`
`in blatantly violating the Order, will continue assent relief
`
`from the Court as sought herein.
`
`26.
`
`Not only is such relief necessary to protect Plaintiff, but it is also respectfully
`
`submitted that the orderly conduct of this action is wrongfully disrupted by defendant Isaac
`
`Perlstein’s refusal to comply with lawful Order of the Court.
`
`27.
`
`Neither the relief sought herein nor substantially similar relief has been sought
`
`before this or any other court.
`
`WHEREFORE, it is respectfully requested that the relief sought herein be granted in all
`
`respects, together with such other and further relief in favor of Plaintiff as this Court deems just,
`
`proper and equitable under the circumstances.

`
`Hady Rozenberg v. Isaac Perlstein aka Yitzchak Aron Perlstein, et 31.
`Index No 520112/2016
`
`Dear Mr. Rosenberg,
`
`As you are aware, the order dated March 1, 2017 (the “Order,” a copy of which is
`enclosed herewith) requires, inter alia, that all checks for rent/use and occupancy for the subject
`house be deposited into the long standing joint house account (the “House Account”).
`
`It has come to our attention, however, that no payment for March 2017 rent/use and
`occupancy has, to date, been deposited into the House Account as required by the Order.
`
`Please advise the undersigned, upon your receipt of this letter, whether any of your
`clients, including but not limited to Mr. Isaac Perlstein, has collected any funds for March 2017
`rent/use and occupancy for subject house and, if so, what the current location/status of such
`funds are. In addition, please immediately advise whether your clients, Martin and Raizel
`Rozenberg, have made any payment on account of their use of the subject house for the month of
`March 2017 and, if so, to whom such payment has been made.
`
`Please note that this letter is sent without prejudice to and with full reservation of all
`rights and claims of our client, which are hereby fully reserved.
`
`Very truly yours,

`
`Dear Mr. Rosenberg,
`
`client, Mr. Perlstein, had deposited March 2017 rent or use and occupancy checks for the house
`which is the subject of the above action (the “House”) into his own account, rather than the long
`standing joint house account (the “House Account”) — as required by the unequivocal terms of
`the order of the Honorable Richard Velasquez, J.S.C., dated March 1, 2017 and entered in the
`above referenced action (the “Order”).
`
`Your client’s actions are a blatant and ongoing violation of Justice Velasquez’s
`Order and demand is hereby made for Mr. Perlstein to immediately deposit, into the House
`Account, the entire amount of all rent and/or use and occupancy collected with respect to
`the House from March 1, 2017 forward.
`
`Your client’s erroneous assertion that the House Account had previously been closed is
`irrelevant to his current and ongoing violation of the Order. If your client had any issue in
`depositing into the House Account as required, it should have been brought to our attention
`immediately. Instead, this erroneous claim was made only after we had repeatedly inquired as to
`the status of the March 2017 rent and/or use and occupancy payments and your client was no
`longer able to conceal his wrongful conduct.
`
`Please note that this letter is sent without prejudice to and with full reservation of all
`rights and claims of our client, which are hereby fully reserved, including but not limited to those
`based on your client’s wrongful conduct in blatantly violating the Order.
`
`Very truly yours,
