After December rent bills did not reflect any reductions in payments, lawyers for tenants at Stuyvesant Town are demanding that rents be lowered and that past rent payments be returned to those affected by the recent court ruling. The 4,000 tenants who live in the illegally deregulated apartments are estimated to receive about $4,000 each in refunds.
