N.Y. Rapid Transit Law § 66: Final decree

§ 66. Final decree. After considering the objections, if any, and

making any corrections or alterations in the tentative decree which the

court shall consider just and proper, it shall give instructions to the

corporation counsel as to the preparation of the final decree, which

shall consist of the tentative decree altered and corrected in

accordance with the instructions of the court, together with a statement

of the facts conferring on the court jurisdiction of the proceeding, and

that the amounts set opposite each parcel in the column headed "final

awards" constitute the compensation to which the respective owners of or

persons in any way interested in the property taken or extinguished in

such proceeding are justly entitled to receive from the city and a

statement of the respective owners and interested parties. In all cases

where the owners or persons interested are unknown, or not fully known

to the court, it shall be sufficient to set forth and state in general

terms the respective sums to be allowed and paid to the respective

owners and interested parties without specifying their names or their

estates or interests. The final decree shall be filed in the office of

the clerk of the county where the property affected by the proceeding is

situated.
