No Overcharge Where Tenant Paid Less Than Legal Regulated Rent
Rent-stabilized tenant complained of rent overcharge. The DRA ruled against tenant, finding no overcharge. Tenant appealed, claiming fraud by landlord. The DHCR ruled against tenant, who then filed an Article 78 court appeal. Tenant claimed that the DHCR's decision was arbitrary and unreasonable. The court ruled against tenant. The DHCR's decision was rationally based, and tenant didn't present sufficient proof of fraud.
