ALBANY, N.Y. – New York's top court has upheld the eviction of Bianca Jagger from a rent-stabilized Manhattan apartment.

The Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that foreigners on tourist visas cannot claim New York digs as a "primary residence."

The globe-trotting human rights activist and ex-wife of Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger was evicted in December from the Upper East Side apartment she rented for 20 years.

Her rent was absurdly low for that area.

I just can’t believe she hung on for that long.

Gimme Shelter.....

Looks like Mick got out when the gettin’ was looking a lot better.

Rent control is a bane to housing all over the place............

One thing for sure..

She’s definitely “low rent”

Jagger rented the Upper East Side space for $4,614 a month. It has since been leased to another tenant. A native of Nicaragua, Jagger keeps an apartment in London.

How much is the new tenant paying?

I guess that's what Studio 54 will do to you.

That picture should give some solace to the people who couldn't get past the velvet rope.

Ridden very hard and put away absolutely soaking wet

What word is used for beyond guilty?

Bianca Jagger is from Nicaragua and a big supporter of Danny Ortega. The antiAmerican socialist president there.
She use to be a hottie. Guess that didn’t work out for her from the looks.

Any bets on when greta leads Faux News with this?

Was Ms. Jagger seen leaving the apartment in a white Bronco?

[somerville]

I don’t know but my guess it’s twice that amount.

I don’t know but my guess is it’s twice that amount.

[Old Sarge]

CONDEMNED.
