*358To claim that the remaining family members of a deceased tenant of record of a rent-controlled apartment are mere licensees is a fiction. It seems that petitioner is attempting to use the fictional claim of an expired license as a guise to permit this court to issue a declaratory judgment as to whether or not respondent is entitled to succession rights.3 However, petitioner must first establish a prima facie case or a cause of action, before the court can consider the affirmative defense of succession.
