NYCHA Tenant Didn't Bar Son from Apartment as Agreed

June 17, 2014

LVT Number: #25587

NYCHA terminated tenant's public housing tenancy after a hearing. Tenant appealed and lost. Substantial evidence supported NYCHA's ruling that tenant violated a 2010 settlement agreement that permanently excluded her son from her apartment based on his illegal drug activity. There was no basis to disturb NYCHA's ruling on tenant's credibility, and the decision didn't shock the court's sense of fairness.
