Certificate of Correction / Commissioner Order — Summons 39198453M
CLASS - 2 · Issued July 30, 2026; hearing October 14, 2026. · Hearing status: PENDING
DOB allegation in the source extract: FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE COMMISSIONER'S ORDER TO FILE A CERTIFICATE OF CORRECTION WITH THE DEPT. OF BUILDINGS FOR VIOLATION #39163164X, FILE A CERTIFICATE OF CORRECTION
Cited provision(s): 263 — AC 28-204.4 FAIL TO COMPLY W/COMMISSIONER ORDER TO FILE CERT OF CORRECTION W/DOB
How this type of condition is typically resolved
This charge focuses on failure to complete or document the DOB correction process for an earlier summons. The practical task is usually to identify the underlying summons, confirm that its physical condition was actually corrected, and complete the current DOB Certificate of Correction requirements with the supporting proof and any applicable civil-penalty documentation.
Hearing issues to verify
- Was a Certificate of Correction already submitted or approved for the underlying summons before this charge was issued?
- Does DOB's record identify the same underlying summons number and correction deadline described in this citation?
- Was the physical condition actually corrected, and can that correction be tied to the cited condition rather than a different job or location?
Evidence that may matter
- DOB NOW / AEU Certificate of Correction submission or approval record
- Before-and-after photographs tied to the cited condition
- Permits, inspection results, contractor receipts or professional statements supporting the correction
- Proof of applicable DOB civil-penalty payment or waiver, if required

Cited provision(s): 187 — 28-201.1 UNLAWFUL ACTS. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH AN ORDER OF THE COMMISSIONER
How this type of condition is typically resolved
The first step is to read the inspector's narrative together with every cited code section and determine exactly what act, condition or missing filing DOB alleges. The correction and hearing strategy should then be built around that specific charge rather than a generic violation-removal checklist.
Hearing issues to verify
- Does the summons identify the correct property, respondent, date and observed condition?
- Do agency records support or contradict the inspector's description?
- Was the condition corrected, permitted or otherwise resolved before the hearing?
Evidence that may matter
- Official DOB/OATH property and summons records
- Dated photographs and videos
- Permits, approved plans and inspection results
- Contracts, receipts, professional letters or witness statements tied to the cited condition

Egress / Exit Obstruction — Summons 39198455X
CLASS - 1 · Issued July 30, 2026; hearing October 14, 2026. · Hearing status: PENDING
DOB allegation in the source extract: UNLAWFUL ACTS. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH COMMISSIONER'S ORDER TO OBTAIN WORK PERMITS FOR VIOLATION #39163166J. NO PERMITS ON FILE FOR INSTALLATION OF CMU WALL BLOCKING EGRESS TO YARD AND INSTALLATION OF HALF-SIZED
Cited provision(s): 187 — 28-201.1 UNLAWFUL ACTS. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH AN ORDER OF THE COMMISSIONER
How this type of condition is typically resolved
Egress charges are generally corrected by removing the obstruction or restoring the required exit width/path and then documenting that the means of egress is clear and code compliant.
Hearing issues to verify
- Was the cited passageway actually required egress for the affected occupancy?
- Did the alleged obstruction exist when the inspector observed it?
- Was the condition immediately removed and can the timing be documented?
Evidence that may matter
- Dated photographs showing the exit path
- Approved floor/egress plans
- Building or security logs
- Statements or work records documenting removal of stored items/obstructions
Case-specific next step
For this property, the first paid review should reconcile the 4 October summons records against the current OATH/DOB record, identify which alleged conditions remain open, and separate the hearing defense from the DOB correction / certification work. That prevents paying for correction work that does not address the actual charge—or appearing at OATH without the documents needed for the cited condition.
