New Penal Law section 241.02 and amended Penal Law 241.05 have created the crimes of harassment of a rent regulated tenant in the first and second degree with the second degree being chargeable with a misdemeanor and the first degree with a felony.
These laws are effective on May 31, 2020.
Be very careful when evicting a regulated tenant - they have rights!
