Chetrit beats Dayan in court over 5 Beekman

Developer Joseph Chetrit just won a round in his court battle with Bonjour Capital’s Charles Dayan over the future redevelopment of the Temple Court at 5 Beekman Street, the Post reported. Chetrit had to lay out both his and Dayan’s share of additional funds to extend and reduce their mortgage commitment to just over $20 million from about $53 million. Now, a judge has ordered Dayan to pay, and Stephen Meister, Chetrit’s lawyer, said he will start enforcing the judgment, which is worth about $2.55 million. Dayan said he disagrees with the court ruling and intends to appeal. [Post, 6th item]
