The Supreme Court refused to hear a case challenging New York's rent stabilization law.
AdvertisementAdvertisementThe US Supreme Court on Monday refused to hear a case challenging New York State's rent stabilization laws covering one million households in New York City.
The plaintiffs — the Rent Stabilization Association, the Community Housing Improvement Program, and individual landlords — filed their suit in 2019 after New York reformed its 1969 law, adding new limits to how much landlords can raise rent.
This is the second time since 2012 that the Supreme Court has refused to hear a case challenging New York's rent stabilization laws.
And there's also Supreme Court precedent in support of tenants — specifically the 1992 case Yee v. City of Escondido in which the court upheld a California eviction restriction.
