LVT Number: 15588

Landlord sued to evict Mitchell-Lama tenant for nonprimary residence. Tenant asked the court to dismiss the case, claiming that landlord should have sent him a notice to cure first. The court ruled against tenant. Tenant appealed and lost. Landlord sent tenant a 10-day termination notice, stating the facts and attaching a copy of the 1992 waiver of the certificate of no objection to eviction issued by the DHCR. This was all landlord had to do. No cure notice was required.
