Summary
Once a lease is signed by both parties in New York State, it becomes a legally binding contract. If a landlord decides not to allow a tenant to move in after signing, it may constitute a breach of contract, potentially entitling the tenant to damages. The President cannot overturn Supreme Court decisions; changes require new legislation or constitutional amendments. Squatting is generally illegal in New York, but government assistance may still be available without a legal address. Contacting a landlord without tenant consent can breach privacy laws, and the tenant may sue for invasion of privacy. Legal advice is recommended for navigating these issues.Full Conversation
