Landlord Didn't Get DRA Order

LVT Number: 17365

(Decision submitted by Blaine Schwadel of the Manhattan law firm of Rosenberg & Estis, PC, attorneys for the landlord.) Facts: Tenant filed a fair market rent appeal in 1992, challenging her $2,500 per month rent. The DRA ruled for tenant in 1995, reduced her rent to $1,470, and ordered landlord to refund $66,000. The DHCR mailed a copy of the order to landlord. But the mailing was returned to the DHCR by the post office because landlord's address didn't show through the envelope window.
