NEW ROCHELLE, NY (July 12, 2026) — A third New York State tax warrant, the largest of three filed against Robert Rubicco during his years living in the Bronx, shows an underlying tax debt of $963 — more than the combined tax owed in the two other Bronx-era warrants detailed elsewhere in this series.
The warrant (Warrant ID E-029175751-W001-6) lists Rubicco’s last known address as 1931 Lurting Ave., Bronx, NY 10461-1305 — a third distinct address, different from either of the other two Bronx warrants in this series. It was docketed in Bronx County on Oct. 20, 2009, under Article 22/30 of the state Tax Law.
The underlying assessment (Assessment ID L-032331474-3) covered a tax period ending Dec. 31, 2008, and itemized as follows:
– Tax: $963.00
– Penalty: $0.00
– Interest: $37.10
– Total assessment: $1,000.10
No penalty was assessed on this warrant, unlike the other two Bronx-era warrants in this series, which both carried penalty charges despite smaller principal tax amounts. The warrant states the total amount due carried an interest rate of 7.50% per year from Oct. 17, 2009. It was issued to the same department officer, K. Arkison, as the two other Bronx warrants.
This warrant, dated 2009, is the earliest of the three Bronx-era warrants and the first-filed of all five tax warrants reviewed by Talk of the Sound in this series.
Talk of the Sound searched the New York State Department of State’s Tax Warrant Notice System, which is intended to include both open and satisfied warrants, for “Rubicco” in both Westchester and Bronx counties, and for “Treehouse” in Westchester County. None of the five warrants in this series were returned by those searches. Talk of the Sound has no information on whether, when, how or for what amount — given accrued interest — any of these warrants were satisfied, if in fact they were. Talk of the Sound has asked the Department of Taxation and Finance to clarify the status of each and will update this report with any response.
Update — July 2026: The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance has confirmed warrant E-029175751-W001-6, filed against Robert Rubicco and docketed in Bronx County on 10/20/2009 for $1,000.10, was satisfied on 8/18/2010. Asked for additional detail on how the warrant was resolved, including any interest paid or whether a lien was collected against property, a Department spokesperson said that information is protected under tax secrecy law. Satisfied warrants are removed from Tax Warrant Notice System after six years.
Editor’s note: On July 9, 2026, four plenary summonses were served on this publication’s publisher by Sheehan & Partners LLP on behalf of LLCs associated with Robert P. Rubicco, in connection with this series. Talk of the Sound continues to report on matters of public record and will provide updates on that litigation as appropriate.
