Tenant Didn't Properly Refile Rejected PAR

Rent-stabilized tenant filed a Petition for Administrative Review (PAR) to appeal the DRA's order granting landlord's application for MCI rent hikes. The DHCR rejected the PAR for procedural defects and permitted tenant to refile the PAR within 35 days from the date of the rejection order. The DHCR warned tenant that failure to refile in compliance with all procedural requirements within the 35 days could result in dismissal of the PAR. Tenant timely refiled the PAR, but the DHCR dismissed it because the building owner's name and mailing address were missing, as well as a complete photocopy of the PAR. This was a final ruling.
