Firm Partners, Andrew Roth and Joseph R. Bjarnson Obtain Preliminary Injunction

Firm Partners, Andrew M. Roth and Joseph R. Bjarnson, obtained a preliminary injunction to prevent the Firm’s client, Mount Sinai Pentecostal Church of Hicksville, NY, from losing their Church property to a tax lien purchaser after more than $1 million in real property taxes were unlawfully assessed against the Church. In the case, the Firm argued, among other things, that the Church was mandatorily exempt from real property taxation under the New York State Real Property Tax Law and that any taxes assessed against the Church property should be declared void. Nassau County opposed the Firm’s application for a preliminary injunction and sought to have the case dismissed. The Honorable Randy Sue Marber, Justice of the New York State Supreme Court, County of Nassau, found that injunctive relief was appropriate because the Church had a “high likelihood of success on the merits” of its claim seeking to have the real property taxes assessed against its property declared void and denied the motion to dismiss.
