Summary
In New York partition actions, if you believe a referee is biased, you can file a motion to disqualify them, citing specific examples of bias. Gather evidence to support your claims and request a hearing on the motion. If a referee is granted authority to sell a property, they may facilitate eviction proceedings, potentially involving co-owners in legal documents. In cases involving domestic violence, complexities arise if a family court order vacated an owner. Consider seeking legal advice to navigate these issues effectively.Full Conversation
