NOCILLA DREAM?

Deborah Nocilla appealed from a judgment issued by the Suffolk County District Court which awarded $5000 to Salvatore Piliere.

Although Piliere and Nocilla co-signed a one-year lease and each agreed to pay half of the rent, Nocilla left during the course of the agreement's term, failed to honor her share of the rent which came due, thereby forcing Piliere to remit the full amount.

After the District Court decided that Piliere was entitled to the money, Nocilla appealed to the Appellate Term, Second Department, which thought the outcome was "amply supported by the record and ... provided the parties with substantial justice ...."

There's nothing like Nocilla.
