    Default What is a Tenant's Liability for Flooding an Apartment Building

    A tenant in New York City was moving a large item when she accidentally hit a sprinkler, causing it to go on. Before the sprinklers could be shut off there was a lot of damage to the tenant's apartment, as well as to common areas and several apartments below the tenant's unit. Is the tenant liable for the damage?
