Tenant Rented Out Rooms in Apartment

June 30, 2003

LVT Number: 16697

Landlord sued to evict rent-stabilized tenant for illegal subletting. The court ruled for landlord. Tenant remained in the apartment but rented rooms to other occupants and put locks on the doors of the rented rooms. So this was a subletting situation, rather than a roommate situation. Roommates generally are given access to the entire apartment.
