A guide for NYC tenants that explains a law called Good Cause Eviction.
Good Cause NYC explains:
Who is covered by the New York State law called Good Cause Eviction
How Good Cause Eviction protects some tenants from excessive rent increases and eviction at the end of a lease
How protected tenants who can’t access a lawyer can defend themselves in Housing Court when landlords violate their Good Cause rights
The guide follows two fictional tenants — one whose landlord tried to raise the rent too much, and another whose landlord tried to not renew their lease — to show how each tenant is protected by GCE and how they can prepare to tell their story and defend their rights in Housing Court.
