: Dear tenant.net,

: Question: If a tenant gives the landlord a 30 day notice of intent to vacate premisis, can he/she change their mind and continue to live in the rent control apartment as long as they continue to pay rent?

You probably mean rent stabilization, not rent control. For RS, you get a lease renewal 120-150 days before the end of the lease and then you have 60 days to respond. I don't know any specific law on this if you change your mind at the last minute, especially after they have re-rented the place. Check Housing COurt Decisions on the web site. Maybe there's something there. In any case, the LL needs a court order to evict.
