    Default Rights of Subletter from Previous Lease

    My question involves a roommate in the State of: New York

    A subletter fails to pay rent and claims unable to afford to move.
    The subletters agreement was with a lease holder who did not reside in the apartment.

    The lease under which the subletter moved into the apartment was not renewed.

    A new lease with new Leasees was sign while subletter was still residing in apartment.

    If new Leasees move into the apartment, change locks and remove the property of subletter from the previous, no longer valid lease, can any legal action be taken against the new Leasees? What rights would such a subletter have if any?

    You haven't told us if the subtenant was ever approved by the landlord as a subtenant, or if the landlord even knew about the subtenant's presence in the apartment. How about it?

    Sorry, yes, the subletter was approved by the landlord.
