DRA Applied Incorrect Guideline Increase

Tenant complained of a rent overcharge. The DRA ruled for tenant. Landlord appealed, pointing out that the DRA incorrectly set the rent for the lease period between Sept. 1, 1991, and Aug. 31, 1993, based on a one-year guideline renewal increase instead of a two-year guideline renewal increase. The DHCR corrected the error. The total overcharge was reduced by over $5,000.
