J. The landlord is not renewing the lease because the tenant has unreasonably refused the
landlord access to the unit for the purposes of making necessary repairs or improvements
required by law or for the purposes of showing the premises to a prospective purchaser,
mortgagee, or other person with a legitimate interest in the premises (good cause for
eviction under paragraph f of subdivision 1 of section 216 of the Real Property Law);

K. The landlord is not renewing the lease because the landlord seeks in good faith to
recover possession of the unit for the landlord's personal use and occupancy as the
landlord's principal residence, or for the personal use and occupancy as a principal
residence by the landlord's spouse, domestic partner, child, stepchild, parent, step-
parent, sibling, grandparent, grandchild, parent-in-law, or sibling-in-law. The landlord can
only recover the unit for these purposes if there is no other suitable housing
accommodation in the building that is available. Under no circumstances can the landlord
recover the unit for these purposes if the tenant is
(a) 65 years old or older; or
(b) a "disabled person" as defined in subdivision 6 of section 211 of the Real Property
Law. To establish this good cause in an eviction proceeding, the landlord must
establish good faith to recover possession of a housing accommodation for the uses
described herein by clear and convincing evidence
(good cause for eviction under paragraph g of subdivision 1 of section 216 of the Real
Property Law);
