Re: renewal of lease
To answer your question properly, we would need some additional information i.e. what type of hearing did the grandson attend? when was the hearing? When was the decision issued? There are strict time limits for filing an Article 78. What is the status of the housing court case? Without these answers, it is impossible to answer the question properly.
