The COVID-19 pandemic continues to dramatically impact the practice of real property law. The continuing legal education programs presented by the Real Property Law Section during the 2021 Annual Meeting of the New York State Bar Association will focus on the effects of the pandemic, as well as other topics of interest to real estate attorneys.

Landlord-tenant cases have been hard hit by the pandemic as courts have slowed or sometimes stopped handling cases. Consequently, some residential landlords have taken matters into their own hands by “locking out” tenants who have not paid rent. Unfortunately, such actions are fraught with potential liability. “Illegal Lockouts and Post Eviction Proceedings,” will be explored by Carlos C. Perez-Hall, a member of the Executive Committee of the Section and a well-known landlord-tenant attorney, during the Section’s program on Thursday afternoon, January 21. Carlos will explore the topic from the perspective of courts, landlords and tenants, and will provide useful tips for practitioners.
