                  ORDER AND OPINION REMANDING PROCEEDING ON APPEAL


               On February 29, 1988 the above-named petitioner-owner  timely
          refiled an  Administrative  Appeal  against  an  order  issued  on
          December 10, 1987 by the District Rent  Administrator,  55  Church
          Street,  White  Plains,   New   York,   concerning   the   housing
          accommodations known as 910 Stuart Avenue, Mamaroneck,  New  York,
          Apartment No. 4H. 

               Subsequent thereto, the petitioner filed a  petition  in  the
          Supreme Court pursuant to Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and 
          Rules requesting that the Court direct the  Division  to  issue  a
          determination of the administrative appeal.

               This appeal  has  been  considered  in  conformity  with  the
          applicable provisions of Chapter 403 of the Laws of 1983  (Omnibus
          Housing Act, of 1983), as amended  and  of  the  Emergency  Tenant
          Protection Act  and  Regulations,  but,  in  the  opinion  of  the
          Commissioner, the record is not adequate to form the basis  for  a
          proper determination  of  the  issues  in  this  proceeding.   The
          proceeding must therefore be remanded to  the  Rent  Administrator
          for further consideration.  

               THEREFORE, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter  403,
          Laws of  1983  as  amended  by  Chapter  102,  Laws  of  1984  and
          Operational Bulletin 84-1, it is

               ORDERED, that this administrative  appeal  be  and  the  same
          hereby is granted to the extent of remanding  this  proceeding  to
          the Rent Administrator for further processing in  accordance  with
          this order and opinion.  The previously issued stay of so much  of






          the Rent Administrator's order as  directed  a  refund  is  hereby
          continued until a new order is issued upon remand.  The order  and






          ADM. REVIEW DOCKET NO. CB 810424 RO
          determination of the Rent Administrator remains in full force  and
          effect in all other respects until a  new  order  is  issued  upon
          remand. 

          ISSUED:
