The contractor has not repaid the loan and I have no current address for him, only a phone number. What legal actions can I take to recover the money, and how can I locate him if necessary?

I have a Geico insurance comprehensive (fire) claim being denied with full coverage. The denial is based on a clause about proper maintenance, claiming an exhaust leak caused the wires to catch on fire. I've only had the vehicle for less than a month and was not the owner when the maintenance was supposed to have been performed. What are my options to challenge this denial?

I am a landlord in NYC. I served my tenant with a 60-day lease non-renewal notice that expired on 12/31/2023. The tenant has not moved out and has not paid their portion of the rent for months. The tenant has a city subsidy that pays a portion of the rent. The reason for the non-renewal is the tenant's poor maintenance of the apartment, which includes a bad smell and damage to the property. What legal steps can I take to evict the tenant?
