Email On September 2, 2021, New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed into law a new moratorium on evictions and foreclosures for residential tenants and small businesses. Recently, in the case Chrysafis v. Marks, the U.S. Supreme Court enjoined the enforcement of the previous residential moratorium in New York (which expired August 31), finding that the tenant’s ability to self-declare financial hardship while precluding a landlord from contesting that declaration violated the landlord’s due process rights. Additionally, in the case Alabama Association of Realtors v. Department of Health and Human Services, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the CDC exceeded its statutory authority in issuing its latest residential eviction moratorium and blocked the enforcement of such moratorium. In response, and citing the rise in cases due to the Delta variant of COVID-19, the New York legislature passed a new moratorium, which expires January 15, 2022. https://www.cadwalader.com/resources/clients-friends-memos/covid-19-update-new-york-governor-signs-new-moratorium-effective-until-january-15-2022
