RGB
Apartment/Loft Guidelines adopted on June 24, 2010
Order #42 - Apartment/Loft lease renewals
commencing between October 1, 2010 and September 30, 2011
Important Notice Regarding RGB Orders Nos. 40 and 41 (For apartment leases subject to renewal between Oct. 1, 2008 and Sept. 30, 2010):
Rent Guidelines Board Order No. 40 set maximum rent increases for apartments subject to renewal on or after October 1, 2008 and on or before September 30, 2009. Rent Guidelines Board Order No. 41 applies to renewal leases commencing on or after October 1, 2009 and through September 30, 2010.
In a decision dated January 20, 2010, the Supreme Court of New York County issued a decision invalidating the minimum rent increases approved by the Rent Guidelines Board in Orders Nos. 40 and 41. These minimum increases affected rent stabilized tenants who renewed leases with effective dates between October 1, 2008 and September 30, 2010, had been living in their apartments for at least six years, and were paying rent of less than $1,000 a month.
On June 22, 2010, a mid-level appellate court affirmed the lower court's decision to invalidate the minimum increases. The Board will now ask the Court of Appeals (the State's highest Court) to review the case. Unless the Court of Appeals agrees to review the case and reverses the lower courts, the minimum increases of Order Nos. 40 and 41 are not in effect.
The other provisions of Order Nos. 40 and 41 are not affected by the litigation. Thus, unless the Court of Appeals reinstates the minimum increase provisions, the established percentage guideline increases set forth in Order Nos. 40 and 41 apply to all regulated apartments, regardless of length of tenancy or rent level.

The three-page decision issued by the Appellate Division on June 22, 2010 may be viewed here (in pdf format).
