A landlord-tenant dispute in Borough Park highlights critical housing rights issues in New York. Landlord Aneiello DeGiuda wishes to move into a first-floor unit for health reasons, currently occupied by Kenyatta Blakely, who insists that DeGiuda must adhere to legal eviction processes. Despite complaints of unpaid rent, tenant rights prevent DeGiuda from unilaterally evicting Blakely. Housing laws require proper legal procedures for eviction, and tenants, particularly in unsafe living conditions, have specific protections that complicate the eviction process, leading to potential legal battles in housing court.
In New York, tenants are protected under strict housing laws, which means a landlord can't simply decide when someone has to leave.
Eviction is a legal process that starts with a written notice to vacate, with the notice period varying from three to 30 days.
