Publication of Housing Price Inflation Adjustment Under 50 U.S.C. App. § 531

AGENCY:

DoD, Office of the Under Secretary (Personnel and Readiness).

ACTION:

Notice.

SUMMARY:

The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, as codified at 50 U.S.C. App. § 531, prohibits a landlord from evicting a Service member (or the Service member's family) from a residence during a period of military service except by court order. The law as originally passed by Congress applied to monthly rents of $2,400 or less. The law requires the Department of Defense to adjust this amount annually to reflect inflation, and to publish the new amount in the Federal Register . We have applied the inflation index required by the statute. The maximum monthly rental amount for U.S.C. App. § 531(a)(1)(A)(ii) as of January 1, 2006, will be $2,615.16.

effective DATE:

January 1, 2006.
