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 had rented for 20 years. She had been in a dispute with Katz Park Avenue Corp., with a separate lawsuit over asbestos and fungus.
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 also keeps an apartment in London.
The Court of Appeals issued the ruling Thursday.

how can you rent an apartment in NYC for 20 years when your a tourist? - Reply to this comment
- She is a "human rights activist"?
She was married to Mick Jagger for 20 minutes 40 years ago and still is living off his name.
She is a tourist in this country and gets a rent protected apartment in Manhattan for about 1/10 of what the rent would normally be.
I guess human rights to her is about getting other people to pay your bills - Reply to this comment
