Synopsis

The landlord challenged the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's decision to provide relocation services to a former occupant of the landlord's building. The court reversed the lower court's decision, finding HPD's determinations had a rational basis, as the vacate order was issued due to health and safety concerns and the former occupant provided sufficient proof of occupancy.
