The eviction moratorium protecting New Yorkers from being booted out of their homes during the coronavirus pandemic has been extended another 30 days.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed an executive order Wednesday night extending protections for tenants who’ve been struggling to pay rent.

“The order signed last night continued provisions giving the courts and litigants the leeway to suspend deadlines related to civil litigation. How and if they use this authority when it comes to eviction proceedings is up to them,” Cuomo spokesman Rich Azzopardi said Thursday.

An OCA rep said information is forthcoming Thursday afternoon.

In June, Cuomo signed legislation creating a new defense in housing court for tenants struggling economically during the health crisis.

Judges could bar an eviction if rents could prove they couldn’t pay rent as a result of financial hardships that began after the COVID-19 outbreak.

The moratorium was set to expire at midnight Wednesday — potentially leaving as many as 400,000 families across all five boroughs in the lurch.
