NEW ROCHELLE, NY (July 12, 2026) — Nearly a decade after the last of three New York State tax warrants filed against Robert Rubicco during his years in the Bronx, the state filed a fourth warrant — this one naming both Robert and Christina Rubicco, at the New Rochelle home where Anna & Jack’s Treehouse was later headquartered.
The warrant (Warrant ID E-029175751-W013-1) lists the judgment debtor as “Robert Rubicco and/or Christina Rubicco,” with a last known address of 3 Kensington Oval, New Rochelle, NY 10805-2903 — the Rubiccos’ home address, and the same address that has appeared in small claims filings elsewhere in this series. It was docketed in Westchester County on Jan. 29, 2020, under Article 22/30 of the state Tax Law.
The underlying assessment (Assessment ID L-049717692-7) covered a tax period ending Dec. 31, 2018, and itemized as follows:
– Tax: $2,251.00
– Penalty: $112.50
– Interest: $145.24
– Total assessment: $2,508.74
Portions of the tax and penalty figures on the copy of this warrant obtained by Talk of the Sound are partially obscured by a copy stamp; the figures above were confirmed by verifying that they sum correctly to the total assessment stated on the document.
The warrant states the total amount due carried an interest rate of 8.50% per year from Jan. 28, 2020 — a higher rate than any of the three earlier Bronx-era warrants in this series. It was issued to a Department of Taxation and Finance officer identified as A. O’Leary.
This is the first of the five warrants reviewed by Talk of the Sound to name Christina Rubicco, and the first to be docketed in Westchester County rather than the Bronx, reflecting the family’s move to New Rochelle.
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-W013-1, filed against Robert Rubicco and/or Christina Rubicco and docketed in Westchester County on 1/29/2020 for $2,508.74, was satisfied on 5/6/2020. 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.
