New York Court of Appeals
Pultz v. Economakis
June 3, 200810 N.Y.3d 542
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division’s order granting summary judgment to the landlords and vacating the injunction, holding that the plain‑language owner‑occupancy provision 9 NYCRR 2524.4(a) permits recovery of only "one or more" units for personal use and does not allow the owners to reclaim an entire rent‑stabilized building without DHCR approval.
