College dropout refuses to leave her dorm room

Ava Lawson |

She loves the college life — just not the classes.

Hunter College is waging a court battle to evict a stubborn student who refuses to leave her dorm room some two years after dropping out.

Delaware native Lisa S. Palmer — who has not paid rent since 2016 — refuses to leave Room E579 at the school’s 425 E. 25th St. co-ed dormitory, according to an eviction lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court.

The 32-year-old “racked up a staggering $94,000 in unpaid residence hall charges on account of her continued occupancy, all the while ignoring Hunter College’s service of additional vacate notices,” said the suit.

Why the hell are eviction laws (especially as it pertains to "squatter's rights") so screwy? I mean, is there some sort of historical purpose or precedent to it?

I still remember the story of the live-in nanny who was fired by the couple who employed her, but refused to leave the house, and the couple was shocked to learn that legally they couldn't force her to leave. I'm not sure how that particular case ended, but it's like every few years there's a news story that's similar (there was another one involving AirBnB guests who refused to leave).

Since she's not a student, she's trespassing on school grounds. Any other trespasser would be forcibly removed. Would they treat a man with such leniency?

She probably needs a security card to access the building. Why can't they deactivate it?

It sounds like they moved her into a different room in a wing where the squatters live. That was their mistake. Now there’s precedent.

And I think it’s hilarious that Hunter wouldn’t allow her to re-enroll. There’s a story THERE, too.

R47 my junior year of college, down the hall, there was a 50 year old hippie who moved into the dorms. She was from California and decided to up and move and go back to college to study art. I still remember her - she smoked pot all day long. Her. name was jeri.

Anyway, all the rooms were quads. So 4 students to a room (this was at a the NYU dorm In union square west for any NYers reading) they were all basically 1 bedroom apartments. 2 students in the living room and 2 in the bedroom.

Jeri's 2 other roommates were so upset they were living with a 50 year old (they were 20 yrs old like me and most in the dorm) that they ended up moving into OUR room. So our "quad" now had 6 girls in it. They brought their mattresses in and slept on the floor for almost a full semester. It was a little crowded but we were all friends.

We ended up kicking them out towards the end - only because one of the girls was from Brazil, and she use to use our phone all the time to call her dad in Rio. Our phone bill was 2500 dollars one month. (This was in the late 90"s pre cell phone era)

So I don't think there is an age limit for students living in on campus housing. At least not at NYU (and hunter as this article states) unless Things have changed. I think there would be lawsuits for age discrimination

I wonder what jeri is up to now. She's 70 and probably still stoned out of her mind.

For the racists who are carrying on as though only a black woman would do something this outrageous, check out the related article about the 67-year-old white male Bellevue nurse who has been keeping a "crash pad" in that dorm since 1980, even though Hunter College long since took over the building from Bellevue and wants his ancient ass out.

I especially love that his arguments as to why he should be allowed to stay amount to "a real apartment would be expensive" and "Hunter is really hurting his feelings."

Here’s what I STILL don’t understand, though, and I’ve been a renter in NYC for 30 years. If you’re not paying rent for several months, you’re in violation of your lease contract. If you don’t pay, you’re not renting. If you’re not renting, you’re not a tenant.

I don’t have a dog in this fight, but I hate that other people get away with not paying rent when the rest of us do it.

From what I understand, Hunter College didn't initiate a formal eviction process through the court system until just recently. Beforehand, it was just the college's student housing administration issuing [italic]their own[/italic] eviction notices without following up with a legal process through NYC's Housing Court.

If this chick plays her cards right, she'll be able to stretch out her time there for at least another six months. Probably much longer, with deliberate missed court appearances, adjournments, extension requests, orders to show cause, and other legal trickery that skilled grifters use. And once she's finally evicted, it'll take another court case to force her to pay the back rent she owes. Good luck with that.

I like how she’s living rent-free and still complains! Hahahaha.

She’s going to have to move back to Delaware because no landlord is going to rent to someone who’s been evicted for two years of non-payment. None. And she can’t pull any of that race card nonsense, because that is a legal reason to refuse a lease. Doesn’t matter if you’re green or purple. Landlords can (and do!) search that shit. Just like auto insurance companies don’t have to write a policy to someone who’s totaled five cars already.

Holy crap, that's my old school. I graduated in the 1990s and they were supposedly getting the Bellevue nurses out of there way back then. The plan was to give all those rooms to Hunter College students. But it doesn't look like Hunter College students are much better at vacating. Even back then the Bellevue nurses had been living there for years and it was understood they were loners/losers. I mean, an adult nurse making a good salary, why would s/he still be living in a dorm room 20 years after graduation? Yeah, you're paying a very low rent but it's a fucking dorm room, not an apartment.

I understand Hunter is building a new health sciences building uptown. The old building (the one trying to evict people) was a fucking dump. It was the old Bellevue School of Nursing, built in the 1960s by some mob construction firm. One wing of the school actually had snow indoors in winter -- and no windows were open. The first time I walked into that part of the building was in January. My pathology classmates and I walked over to close the windows. The blinds were were swinging all over the place from the freezing wind. But when we lifted the blinds, we saw the windows were closed. It was "Moscow on the East River." We had to wear gloves in class like Bob fucking Cratchit. I had a thick scarf someone gave me that I never wore, but I started wearing it to school just so I could fold the scarf and sit on it because the classroom seats were like blocks of ice.

Only losers would live there if they weren't students.

Oh, here's another story about that building. It had a strip of grass in front and at the side. I was working at NYUMC and would walk to school after I finished working in the evening. I would always see at least one rat running around in the grass. Then I started seeing more rats. I complained to the school and other people did, too. Well, something happened -- I don't know if it was flooding or poison or what -- but one night I saw what looked like a spreading oil spill in the grass. It turned out to be rats. Where the grass met the cement were a hundred rats pouring out of the ground. They were every size you can imagine. I had to walk past the area to get to the 1st Ave bus stop. Several of us students were frozen, afraid to move. The rats were spilling onto the sidewalk. We all took a deep breath and ran like hell through the rat stream. There was a VA and a homeless shelter nearby, so there was always some human-created outrage somewhere. Sure enough, there was a pile of puke in the street and some of the rats found it and were chowing down. Thankfully, the bus came as soon as we got to the stop and we all jumped up those bus stairs like star athletes.

I never saw anything like it. This wide, spreading "oil slick" of rats pouring out of the ground and no end in sight. You KNOW those dorm rooms had a rodent problem.

There is a British show on Netflix called Can't Pay Well Take it Away that shows people getting evicted or getting their cares repossessed.

Every once in a while I'll see that people got evicted and their belongings are all piled up on a sidewalk. There are beds and furniture, the whole nine yards. I guess the property managers can just have all the stuff cleared out and they leave it on the curb. Obviously these people get like a million warnings before that happens and they don't make any arrangements to move their things? Sometimes I see people picking thru the stuff and just taking it. I wouldn't to go thru the belongings of obviously trashy people but whatever.

Anyway, my mom worked for a community association management company and she said people would pull that shit. Maybe pay rent for a month or two and then just stay there not paying rent until they went thru the eviction process which took months. Then they'd move somewhere else, get the apartment in the other person who lived there's name and repeat the process. Depending on how many people lived in the place you could go a good while not paying rent and ripping others off.

I still don’t understand how she is able to still be allowed into the dorms.

Room and board is paid on a per semester basis.

One year, a friend of mine couldn’t pay her tuition/room and board. She was living in the 3rd Ave North dorms (sorority house) at NYU. To get into the dorms we had “hand scan” machines. So the computer would read our hand print, and we then could go past the turnstile and get into the dorm. All dorms had a couple security guards as well. I assume Hunter had the same set up. This was at NYU.

So that semester she was basically homeless and couldn’t attend classes because she couldn’t pay tuition. She was not allowed into the dorm wih the hand scan machine for “non payment” so for a semester each time she wanted to come and go from the dorm, one of the sorority members would go down and sign her in “as a guest” with the guards. We managed to do this daily for one semester. She slept on the couch in the common area. After that semester of being thrown out of NYU for not being able to pay - she ended up moving and transferred to UPenn where they gave her the all the financial aid she needed.

NYU was pretty quick to throw her out of the dorms, why can’t Hunter Collge? Makes no sense to me. The students ID card wouldn’t be valid to get in and out of the dorms, just like my friends hand scan print was no longer valid for non payment at the NYU dorms.

I've heard so many rental horror stories I would never want to rent to anyone. I know people who owned houses that were destroyed by their tenant and there really is nothing they can do. The legal process is expensive and what is the point of trying to sue when the tenant has no money to go after?

I knew a guy who took in a roommate, which he needed to pay his mortgage, and the guy stopped paying rent and wouldn't leave. Not only was he not collecting the rent he was expecting to make his mortgage payment, he had to pay lawyers to get the guy evicted. Like the parents with the nanny, imagine having your squatter in your house with you. Sure, the guy I knew shouldn't have taken on a mortgage he couldn't afford without the roommate but he didn't deserve to get screwed like that. He eventually ended up getting foreclosed on. Fucked up situation but some people don't care who they screw over.

I saw in a U.K. Paper once where a lady went on vacation and a family of gypsues moved in to her place and trashed it. The police told her she couldn't do anything about it! I couldn't finish reading the article because my blood was boiling I was so angry

The Post article says she works for an architectural firm could't Hunter College padlock the door after she leaves for work or goes out for food?

R107 As many posters have pointed out it's illegal to just lock someone out of their domicile. I wouldn't have thought that applies to dorms but apparently it does. There has to be a legal eviction process before a person can be forced from where they are living if they refuse to leave. I suppose the laws were enacted for a reason, to protect slimy landlords from forcing you out without notice, making you become homeless but now those protections are being abused by freeloaders.

I work in the hotel industry and it some states it's possible for a transient guest to transform into a permanent resident and have the right of eviction and you'd have to follow the same rules. Note this is only in some states and cities. So you have to be careful with things lie this.

Hunter College can write-off that 94K right now.

But what's her excuse for staying? She's not enrolled, she has a job, she has no right to live in a dorm anymore.

Does she truly believe anyone is on her side?

She's the poster child for "stated her boundaries!"

Why would any reputable company employ someone like this? She's mentally ill AND a thief.

[quote] This is actually the subject of a recurring nightmare or anxiety dream I have. In it I'm still living in my college dorm today in my 30's. But no one knows so I have to sneak in and out everyday past all these young students who I'm sure are wondering why this old creepy dude is hanging at the dorms all the time.

I can picture your dream.
