Question: Stambovsky v. Ackley, 169 A.D.2d 254, 572 N.Y.S.2d 672 (1991). This is (obviously) a New York case, but it is called the Ghostbusters ruling for good reason: it is all about a haunted house! It shows a playful side of the judiciary, which you will see from time to time in a number of cases. Typically, it is a lot more subtle than in Stambovsky, but nonetheless, it exists.

read the case in its entirety and answer the following six questions:

What is the legal question presented here? Is there more than one? (In other words, what does the court need to decide?)
What are the main arguments for and against it?
What case do you think helped the court with its decision?
Name a case that was distinguished by the court, and for what reason(s). (In other words, what case did the court use to show how it was different than the case it was ruling on.)
Do you agree or disagree with this decision? Why?
What is your favorite quote or pun from this holding?
