On April 2, 2020, the Court of Appeals, by a 4-3 margin, issued a lengthy and groundbreaking decision in Regina Metro Co. v New York State Div. of Hous. & Community Renewal. The decision collectively decided four rent overcharge cases arising from Roberts v Tishman Speyer Props., L.P., 13 NY3d 270 (2009), wherein the Court of Appeals had ruled that luxury deregulation was unavailable in buildings receiving J-51 benefits. The landlords in Regina had deregulated various apartments based on advice from DHCR that luxury deregulation was not prohibited in such buildings. The question in Regina was how to compute base rents and rent overcharges in such cases.
