. Certain regulations governing rent-regulated housing relate to the eviction of tenants for illegal activity. The Rent and Eviction Regulations (9 NYCRR 2204.2 [a] [4]) authorize eviction of rent-controlled tenants based on use of the premises for illegal activity. The Rent Stabilization Code (9 NYCRR 2524.3 [d]) authorizes eviction of tenants in rent-stabilized units based on use of premises for "immoral or illegal purposes.” In an illegal use proceeding commenced pursuant to RPAPL 711 (5) a termination notice has been held required pursuant to Rent Stabilization Code § 2524.2 (c) (2) before a landlord can seek to evict a rent-stabilized tenant. (221 E. 10th St. v Walker, NYLJ, June 3, 1992, at 23, col 4, revd on other grounds NYLJ, June 30, 1993, at 21, col 5 [App Term, 1st Dept].) Those provisions are not applicable here, because the premises are not subject to State rent regulation.
