It applies to any state that does not currently have a moratorium with terms at least as stringent as the CDC moratorium.\u00a0 As the Massachusetts moratorium just expired, Massachusetts residential landlords and tenants are now subject to the CDC moratorium only.<\/p>\n<h2>The CDC moratorium only applies to <em>residential<\/em> evictions<\/h2>\n<p>You can find our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowditch.com\/2020\/04\/30\/client-alert-ma-executive-office-of-housing-economic-development-issues-regulations-and-guidance-on-covid-19-eviction-moratorium\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">comprehensive description<\/a> of the Massachusetts moratorium on evictions and foreclosures which is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowditch.com\/2020\/04\/21\/client-alert-massachusetts-pauses-residential-and-commercial-evictions-and-residential-foreclosures-during-the-covid-19-state-of-emergency\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">now expired<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The CDC moratorium differs in two significant ways from the former Massachusetts law: (1) the CDC order does not address mortgage foreclosures for borrowers impacted by COVID-19; and (2) it only applies to residential leases.\u00a0 It seems clear that as of October 17, 2020, small business tenants are no longer protected from eviction and residential property owners are no longer protected from foreclosure.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/covid-eviction-declaration.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">full text of the CDC\u2019s order<\/a> is available on their website.<\/p>\n<h2>Who is protected?<\/h2>\n<p>The CDC moratorium applies only if a tenant is a \u201ccovered person,\u201d meeting certain criteria and documentation obligations.\u00a0 Specifically, \u201ccovered persons\u201d are \u201cany tenant, lessee, or resident of a residential property who provides their landlord\u00a0 . . . \u00a0with a declaration under the penalty of perjury that . . . \u201d<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The occupant has used best efforts to obtain all available government assistance for rent or housing; <em>and<\/em><\/li>\n<li>The occupant: (i) is expected to earn no more than $99,000 in annual income for the 2020 calendar year (or no more than $198,000 if filing a joint tax return); (ii) was not required to report any income in 2019 to the IRS; <em>or <\/em>(iii) received an Economic Impact Payment (a\/k\/a stimulus check) pursuant to Section 2201 of the CARES Act; <em>and<\/em><\/li>\n<li>The occupant is unable to pay full rent or make housing payments due to a substantial loss of income, loss of compensable work hours or wages, a layoff or extraordinary out-of-pocket expenses; <em>and<\/em><\/li>\n<li>The occupant is using \u201cbest efforts\u201d to make timely partial payments that are as close to the full rent payment as circumstances may permit, taking into account other non-discretionary expenses; <em>and<\/em><\/li>\n<li>An eviction would likely render the occupant homeless or force the occupant to move into and live in close quarters with others in a new shared living arrangement.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>The CDC moratorium does not excuse rent payments<\/h2>\n<p>The CDC moratorium ends on December 31, 2020 and any tenant seeking relief under the CDC\u2019s moratorium must accept and acknowledge full responsibility for paying all rent in arrears, and any and all fees or other charges.\u00a0 All such payments will be due upon the moratorium\u2019s expiration.\u00a0 So, like its Massachusetts predecessor, the CDC moratorium does not excuse tenants from paying rent.\u00a0 In fact, all tenants are expected to pay as much of their rent as they are able, and the order explicitly allows landlords to assess late fees, penalties or interest on any unpaid rent.<\/p>\n<h2>The CDC moratorium, like the Massachusetts version, allows for some evictions in certain urgent cases<\/h2>\n<p>Despite the CDC moratorium\u2019s general prohibition on evictions of \u201ccovered persons\u201d, the CDC will allow a landlord to evict a tenant if that tenant is:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Engaging in criminal activity while on the premises;<\/li>\n<li>Threatening the health or safety of other residents;<\/li>\n<li>Damaging or posing an immediate and significant risk of damage to property;<\/li>\n<li>Violating any applicable building code, health ordinance, or similar regulation relating to health and safety; or<\/li>\n<li>Violating any other contractual obligation, other than the timely payment of rent or similar housing-related payment (including nonpayment or late payment of fees, penalties, or interest).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Criminal and substantial financial penalties for violations of the CDC moratorium<\/h2>\n<p>A landlord who is a natural person found to have violated the CDC moratorium may be subject to: (1) a fine of \u00a0no more than $100,000 or one year in jail or both (if the violation does not result in a death); or (2) a fine of no more than $250,000 or one year in jail, or both (if the violation results in a death).\u00a0 Organizations (i.e. business entities operating as landlords) are subject to double the fines.<\/p>\n<h2>The CDC moratorium is subject to judicial challenges<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that the CDC\u2019s moratorium is subject to judicial challenges (<em>Brown v. Azar<\/em>, No. 1:20-cv-03702 (N.D.Ga.), <em>KBW Investment Properties LLC v. Azar<\/em>, No. 2:20-cv04852 (S.D.Ohio), and <em>Tiger Lilly LLC v. HUD<\/em>, No. 2:20-cv-02692 (W.D.Tenn.)).\u00a0 The plaintiffs in these cases are arguing that the CDC does not have the authority to stop landlords from proceeding with evictions. In each case, the plaintiffs have sought to prohibit the moratorium\u2019s enforcement pending trial.<\/p>\n<p>In enacting the moratorium, the CDC cited the Public Health Law (42 U.S.C. \u00a7 264) as its authority for regulating housing and landlord\/tenant relations. Section 361 of the Public Heath Law allows the CDC to enact regulations \u201cnecessary to prevent the introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases \u00a0. . . from one State or possession into any other State or possession.\u201d \u00a0The CDC asserted that the moratorium will allow renters to remain in current homes thus mitigating the increase in housing density or homelessness and the resultant spread of COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>The plaintiffs in the various lawsuits have challenged the CDC\u2019s authority to regulate housing and evictions under the Public Heath Law.\u00a0 At this time, the CDC moratorium remains in place and no court has issued any injunction preventing the moratorium\u2019s enforcement.<\/p>\n<h2>Now what?<\/h2>\n<p>The CDC moratorium raises multiple questions and issues which are likely to be resolved through litigation, although perhaps not before the moratorium is lifted or the pandemic ends.\u00a0 The one clear point is that landlords of commercial properties may now institute proceedings for possession. Until procedural guidance is available or the moratorium ends, residential evictions should proceed with significant caution, if at all. We are monitoring developments and will report further on changes or developments on the state of evictions in Massachusetts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On October 17, 2020, the Baker-Polito administration allowed the Massachusetts moratorium on residential foreclosures and residential and small business evictions to expire.&nbsp;
