Lease Nonrenewal Notice Properly Sent 90 Days Before Termination Date

Landlord sued to evict rent-stabilized tenant after sending a notice that it wouldn't renew tenant's lease. Tenant claimed that landlord's nonrenewal notice was untimely. The court ruled for tenant and dismissed the case. Landlord appealed. The court reopened the case. Landlord mailed the nonrenewal notice to tenant 90 days before his current lease expired. This was timely notice of nonrenewal under the Rent Stabilization Code.
