Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York

We just found out the new landlord for my mother-in-law might be putting forth eviction papers in for her. We are moving her out the apt next week Monday or Tuesday. If she gets evicted between now and then and she is a Senior Citizen would cannot pay her current August rent, could she execute her Senior Rights to stay until we move her? Our fear is she gets evicted between now and Monday and what will happen to her and what rights does she have if she cannot pay and we are getting her out. Please advise, thanks...

Takes weeks to evict. If she is served with papers, you must answer the complaint. Do not default.
