Roommate Has No Standing to File Complaint

LVT Number: 15461

Rent-stabilized tenant's roommate complained of a rent overcharge. The DRA ruled against roommate because she was apartment occupant, not a tenant. Roommate appealed and lost. The DHCR noted that there was a prior PAR decision determining that roommate wasn't a tenant and had no standing to complain. That decision was never appealed and can't be attacked in the current case.
