Summary

The Court affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that DHCR correctly interpreted Part D of the 2019 Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act to prohibit luxury deregulation of apartments whose leases expired after June 14, 2019, and rejected the landlord’s claims of retroactive application and undue delay. The decision also affirmed that the agency’s processing time did not constitute negligence.
