LANDLORDS PROPERLY CALCULATED THE RENT OVERCHARGE PURSUANT TO THE NYC RENT STABILIZATION CODE BY CHOOSING A BASE RENT DATE FOUR YEARS BEFORE THE DATE DEEMED TO BE WHEN THE OVERCHARGE COMPLAINT WOULD HAVE BEEN FILED HAD THE LAW BEEN CLEAR AT THE TIME (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department, over a dissent, determined the defendants-landlords had properly calculated a rent overcharge by going back four years from a date deemed to be when the tenants would have filed a rent overcharge complaint (none had been filed because the relevant law was unclear at the time):

Defendants chose May 1, 2010 as the date on which plaintiffs would be deemed to have filed a claim for overcharges, in the absence of any such claim having been filed, and then used these 2526.1(a) standards to fix the base date for determining the overcharge as May 1, 2006, the date four years before they undertook their review. Defendants then reduced plaintiffs' rent and forwarded payment to them for the overcharges so reflected. In June 2010 defendants filed registrations for the years 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 in accordance with these recalculations. Raden v W 7879, LLC, 2018 NY Slip Op 05799, First Dept 8-16-18
