Independence Plaza North tenants and their supporters rallied against the state's mid-level court decision in Denza.

The tenants are seeking permission from New York State's highest court to appeal.

[Article Updated Mar 15, 2010: "Editor's Note: The Trib had originally reported that Mr. Miller's contention in the case against Lawrence Gluck was that HPD's decision to retroactivly terminate Independence Plaza North's J-51 tax abatement was improper, and as such does not protect Gluck from the application of rent stabilization laws. According to Miller, Independence Plaza should be rent stabilized regardless of the legality of HPD's action."]
