How can you stop your eviction after losing your Housing Court case?

Nov 03, 2024

In Episode 36 we discuss a fairly new case interpreting Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law §749(3), which was changed by the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act, which codifies a tenant’s Right of Redemption – the right of the tenant to pay the “full rent due” at any point before the eviction is carried out and stop the eviction and vacate the warrant. But how much is the “full rent due”? Is it the amount in the money judgment against the tenant? Is it the amount due weeks or months later when the warrant of eviction is issued from the Clerk’s Office? Or is the amount due right up until the time that the eviction is scheduled? This new case gives us an answer.
