H. The landlord is not renewing the lease because the tenant's occupancy of the unit
violates law and the landlord is subject to civil or criminal penalties for continuing to let
the tenant occupy the unit. For this good cause to apply, a state or municipal agency
having jurisdiction must have issued an order requiring the tenant to vacate the unit. No
tenant shall be removed from possession of a unit on this basis unless the court finds that
the cure of the violation of law requires the removal of the tenant and that the landlord did
not, through neglect or deliberate action or failure to act, create the condition
necessitating the vacate order. If the landlord does not try to cure the conditions causing
the violation of the law, the tenant has the right to pay or secure payment, in a manner
satisfactory to the court, to cure the violation. Any tenant expenditures to cure the
violation shall be applied against rent owed to the landlord. Even if removal of a tenant is
absolutely essential to the tenant's health and safety, the tenant shall be entitled to
resume possession at such time as the dangerous conditions have been removed. The
tenant also retains the right to bring an action for monetary damages against the landlord
or to otherwise compel the landlord to comply with all applicable state or municipal
housing codes (good cause for eviction under paragraph d of subdivision 1 of section 216
of the Real Property Law);
I. The landlord is not renewing the lease because the tenant is using or permitting the unit
or premises to be used for an illegal purpose (good cause for eviction under paragraph e
of subdivision 1 of section 216 of the Real Property Law);
