The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“With regard to the multi-county scenario, I have no doubt that this creates some difficulties to a foreclosing lien holder who will be forced to proceed through various procedural hoops and submit filings in two counties. For example, if a trial in New York County results in a judgment of foreclosure, [the contractor] will have to obtain a certified copy of the judgment and file it in Kings County in order to enforce the judgment. However, whatever burden is imposed by these additional procedural hoops is a burden of [the contractor's] own creation and one arising out of its decision to enter into the subject construction contract. I also note that, to the extent that [the contractor] will be compelled to perform additional procedural steps to enforce its lien, this is hardly tantamount to losing its rights under the Lien Law, as it has claimed.”
