The New York Court of Appeals, the state’s highest court, handed down a series of significant rulings this year, from one that weighed if an out-of-state gun dealer could be sued in New York, to another that asked if an entire trial should be thrown out over a juror’s text messages.

The high court is set to start the new year in January with a case analyzing how much a group of tenants overpaid when their landlord mistakenly removed their units from rent regulations.
