In the Matter of JANIE SANDERS, Petitioner, v. RUBEN FRANCO, as Chair of New York City Housing Authority et al., Respondents

Respondent's finding that petitioner violated the stipulation is supported by substantial evidence, and we decline to pass upon the validity of provisions contained in that agreement. However, we vacate the penalty of termination as unduly harsh and shockingly disproportionate, and remand for the imposition of a lesser penalty, in view of the facts that the petitioner is over 70 years old, currently lives alone and is supported by Social Security. Further, other than the infractions committed by her emancipated son, petitioner has had an unblemished 40-year tenancy at the subject apartment (Matter of Stroman v. Franco, 253 A.D.2d 398, lv denied 93 N.Y.2d 817).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
