Tenant's Daughter Gets Rent-Stabilized Apartment

Rent-stabilized tenant's daughter complained that landlord refused to give her a renewal lease after tenant died. Landlord claimed that the daughter didn't prove succession rights. The DRA ruled for tenant's daughter and directed landlord to give her a renewal lease. Landlord appealed and lost. The daughter had submitted to the DRA a birth certificate listing tenant as her father, tenant's 2016 death certificate listing her as his daughter, and two years of documents listing the apartment as tenant's residence. These included invoices in her name for telephone and cable TV, a NYC ID listing the apartment as the daughter's residence, and mail from the NYC SCRIE unit and NYC Human Resources Administration.
