One issue that may reach the United States Supreme Court is the constitutionality of various rent stabilization laws that have been passed by states and municipalities in an effort to
control housing costs. One case making its way to the Court is a challenge to New York City’s rent stabilization law — the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019
(“HSPTA”)—brought by several advocacy groups as well as individual landlords. The suit alleges that the law violates the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution. _CMTY.
HOUS. IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM V. N.Y.C._, 59 F.4TH 540, 547 (2D CIR. 2023). The HSPTA implements several changes to New York’s rent stabilization scheme to regulate rent and more expansively
protect tenants. _Id_. at 546 (specifying protections under the law). The District Court dismissed the plaintiffs’ claim that the law violated the Takings Clause. _Id. _at 548. Plaintiffs
then appealed to the Second Circuit, which also upheld the law. _Id. _at 557. Plaintiffs-Appellants petitioned for Supreme Court review. _See _PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI, _CMTY. HOUS.
IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM V. N.Y.C._ (2023) (NO. 22-1095). That petition is pending. If this case reaches the Supreme Court, it has implications not only for the housing stability of low‑income
New Yorkers, but also for other state and city housing interventions challenged under the Takings Clause. For example, the Ninth Circuit has affirmed dismissals of similar cases challenging
city rent stabilization laws as takings. _See __APARTMENT ASS’N OF GREATER LOS ANGELES V. CITY OF BEVERLY HILLS_, NO. 19-55955, 2022 WL 3031318, AT *1 (9TH CIR. AUG. 1, 2022) (affirming
dismissal of takings challenge to the City of Beverly Hills’ rent stabilization ordinance); _CHESSEN, TR. OF 1997 K & M FAM. TR. DATED 12-11-97 V. CITY OF SAN RAFAEL_, NO. 22-15615, 2023
WL 1879502, AT *1 (9TH CIR. FEB. 10, 2023) (affirming dismissal of takings challenge to the City of San Rafael’s Mobile Home Rent Stabilization Ordinance). A district court in Minnesota has
similarly granted summary judgment to the City of Saint Paul in a case where residential property owners challenged the city’s rent-stabilization ordinance under the Takings Clause.
_WOODSTONE LTD. P’SHIP V. CITY OF SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA_, NO. 22-CV-1589 (NEB/DLM), 2023 WL 3586077 (D. MINN. MAY 22, 2023). Meryl Grenadier [email protected] VIEW THE FULL SUPREME COURT
