Tenant Didn't Verify Income on Time
LVT Number: 12120
Landlord applied for high-rent/high-income deregulation of tenant's apartment. The DHCR ruled for landlord, finding that tenant didn't verify his income within the required time period. Tenant appealed. The court ruled for tenant and sent the case back to the DHCR for further processing. The DHCR appealed and won. The DHCR's determination had a rational basis and followed the law.
