From March 2020 through January 2022, New York's COVID Emergency Eviction and Foreclosure Prevention Act paused most Nassau County evictions. The moratorium has expired, but ERAP arrears protections, COVID-era judgments, and HSTPA reforms continue to shape current cases.
CEEFPA, enacted in December 2020 and extended through January 15, 2022, halted most residential evictions in Nassau County when tenants filed hardship declarations. After the US Supreme Court enjoined the automatic-stay provision in August 2021, NY enacted a revised version. The Emergency Rental Assistance Program then paid roughly $2.7 billion statewide in back rent. ERAP-protected tenancies remain shielded from eviction for nonpayment of covered arrears for one year after payment. Nassau District Court housing parts continue to apply HSTPA notice rules, the warranty of habitability defense, and right-to-counsel pilots that emerged during the moratorium.
Filing eviction cases against ERAP-protected tenants for covered arrears produces dismissal, sanctions, and tenant attorney-fee awards. Landlords cannot recover ERAP-paid rent twice and risk claims for unjust enrichment.
