The Rent Stabilization Association (aka the RSA) has filed a lawsuit in the Manhattan Supreme Court against the Rent Guidelines Board (RGB) seeking to annul the rent freeze, declare the rent freeze unconstitutional and direct the RGB to create new rent guidelines for the period October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017.
