Acceptance of Unsolicited Rent After Expiration of a Lease and After the Requisite Nonrenewal Notice Does not Waive the Intention Not to Renew or Vitiate the Notice

The Second Department, in a full-fledged opinion by Justice Cohen, determined the acceptance of unsolicited rent payments after the lease for a rent-stabilized apartment had expired, and after the tenant had received the requisite nonrenewal notice, did not constitute a waiver of the intention not to renew:

… [W]e are asked to determine whether a landlord’s acceptance of unsolicited rent in the “window period” between the expiration date of a lease and the commencement of a holdover proceeding nullifies a landlord’s previous service of a notice of intention not to renew the lease. We conclude that the acceptance of unsolicited rent in these circumstances does not, by itself, demonstrate an intentional waiver of a previously served notice of intention not to renew the lease and, thus, does not vitiate that notice.
