When a search of Doris Diaz's apartment revealed nine firearms and over four hundred rounds of ammunition (all of which allegedly belonged to Doris's boyfriend), the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) terminated her tenancy based on "nondesirability" and breach of NYCHA's rules and regulations.
After Doris filed an administrative proceeding with the New York County Supreme Court claiming NYCHA's decision wasn't supported by "substantial evidence," the case was transferred to the Appellate Division, First Department, which confirmed the outcome.
Despite her assertions that she didn't know the stuff was being stored in her unit, the AD1 thought there was enough evidence supporting the hearing officer's determination and which discredited Doris's claims. (She also supposedly breached her lease by allowing her boyfriend to live with her.)
Not in THIS house!
