The petitioner, owner of condominium units located at 923 Fifth Avenue, brought this holdover petition seeking to evict the respondent, a rent stabilized tenant of the building, pursuant to Rent Stabilization Code (9 N.Y.CRR) § 2524.3 (f) on the ground that the tenant failed to renew her expiring rent stabilized lease.
Appellate Term erred in considering matter pertaining to a New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal overcharge proceeding in reaching its determination, since the court had granted the petitioner's motion to strike references to such proceeding from the record submitted by the respondent on appeal (see, Chimarios v. Duhl, 152 A.D.2d 508; Recovery Consultants v. Shih-Hsieh, 141 A.D.2d 272; Gintell v. Coleman, 136 A.D.2d 515).
The petitioner's unrebutted evidence at trial established that the respondent failed to renew her lease. Accordingly, pursuant to section 2524.3 of the Rent Stabilization Code, the petitioner properly sought to evict her. The defenses raised by the respondent on appeal were neither pleaded nor proved at trial. Accordingly, the judgment of the Civil Court is reinstated.
We have considered the respondent's remaining contentions and find them unpreserved for our review and/or without merit.
