More details to this question:
A relative of mine owns an apartment in New York City that she acquired a number of years ago as payment in satisfaction of a debt owed to her. The apartment was, and still is, occupied by a tenant under a rent stabilized lease. She has tried to cancel the lease in the past but has not been successful. I recently with a Real Estate Professional in NYC and he advised me that if she moves into the apartment and the premises are no longer used as rental property, she can evict the tenant. I was told that the specific term for this is "Gallop Notice for Eviction of Rent Control Unit". I have researched the term both in Google and in the NYC Rent Guidelines website, but neither search produces results. Where can I find out more information on this subject?

The term is 'Golub notice', and is a combined notice required to be served in connection with holdover proceedings premised upon the non-primary residence of a tenant. This notice is always prepared by a qualified landlord-tenant attorney, and its specific draftsmanship and service should not be attempted by a non-lawyer, as the tenancy is highly regulated. Your relative should retain qualified counsel, if the intent is to terminate the lease of the tenant.
