In Mexico Leasing LLC v. Jones [45 Misc. 3d 127[A], 2014 NY Slip Op 51456[U]], the Appellate Term, Second Department held that where the tenant moved to Pennsylvania in 1999, but returned to the apartment regularly, and continued to pay rent and sign leases through June 2011, her daughter who had lived in the apartment since 1984 "... satisfied the Code's requirement's for succession." The Appellate Term held that succession was established not because the daughter had lived with the tenant for the two years prior to moving in 1999, but based on their finding that the succession claim could not be denied.
