NY condo developer files $25 million lawsuit against apartment dweller who won't move out

2022-04-18 00:00:00

Ahmet Nejat Ozsu has been living in a 700-square-foot apartment on New York's Upper West Side for 15 years. Last year, a condo developer bought the building and persuaded everyone to move except Ozsu. He rejected the developer's offer of $30,000 and ignored an eviction order. Now the developer is suing him for $25 million. But thanks to a non-eviction rule the City of New York put in place during the pandemic, Ozsu might be able to stay in the apartment for years. In the meantime, the developer installed a large, noisy air filter next to Ozsu's door and mounted a security camera in the hallway.
