Facing immediate eviction

Postby sarapat » Sat Mar 24, 2012 10:55 pm

I withheld rent for last month due to prolonged construction next door and just received a letter from the landlord saying that he is cancelling my lease. Is eviction procedure for non-payment same for regulated and non-regulated apartments in NYC or different. I now live in an un-regulated apt. When I lived in a regulated apt. I was served court papers and there was due process in court. Would it be the same for a non-regulated apt. or is a letter from the landlord saying the lease has ended enough to have me kicked out?
The lease states that if it is cancelled via a letter from the landlord he can "(a) peacefully enter the Apartment and remove Tenant and any person or property (b) use eviction or other lawsuit to take back apt.

I thought they could only evict through court and not enter the apt. and remove me before then?
