Landlord Didn't Send Form RN-26 to Tenant on Time

LVT Number: 13652

Landlord appealed the MCR for tenant's apartment calculated by the DRA. Landlord claimed the rent should be higher, because he had previously sent tenant a Form RN-26, the Notice of Maximum Base Rent/Maximum Collectible Rent Computation. The DHCR ruled against landlord. DHCR's records showed that landlord didn't deliver the RN-26 form on time during the 1978–79 MBR cycle. So landlord wasn't entitled to MBR increases for those years.
