Sorry to bear unhappy news, but...
Unfortunately, the Board was probably advised correctly.
We would all like to see the funds advance to the Coop, but no judge would award it. After spending good money, the SH will be ordered to remedy the illegal sublet within a specified amount of time. You lost more money chasing justice. It is truly unfortunate, but this is the way it works.
Let it be a lesson the board and management to keep a closer and clearer eye on every apartment. The super plays an important role in notifying management of anyone who moves furniture, or changes in mail or faces. Management should look at things such as the postmarks on the payments when they arrive (a check postmarked from Florida for 2 consecutive months is your flag), there are many more red flags to look for, but that is the managers’ job.

This is the way it is (unfortunately based on several 1st hand experiemnces); however, if I am proven to be in err anywhere, please tell me how and where.
I am open, and quick to accept correction (we'd like to hear your experiences too - that's why we're here!)
