East 10th Street v. Estate of Goldstein

In East 10th Street v. Estate of Goldstein, 154 A.D.2d 142, 552 N.Y.S.2d 257 (1st Dept. 1990) the Rent Stabilization Code explicitly defined "family" to include a specific list of traditional family relationships. The court found that "the decision in Braschi provides a controlling precedent herein since there is no significant distinction between the two regulatory schemes which would mandate a different definition of 'family.'"
