Synopsis

In this licensee holdover proceeding involving a former NYCHA building converted via RAD/PACT, Respondent claimed succession rights as the granddaughter of the former tenant and filed a Remaining Family Member grievance, which was denied. The court stayed the proceeding pending an Article 78 challenge and set use and occupancy at $245 per month, the lower of the prior rent and Respondent's income-based rate, in accordance with NYCHA's Handbook.
