I don't know. One thing I can tell you is it matters a whole lot where you are. Staten Island outcomes will be far different than the Bronx. On Long Island landlords will be given the benefit of the doubt.

In situations where the owner gets arrested for "wrongful eviction", despite the squatter having no evidence of being a tenant, how are the police justifying having probable cause to make that arrest?

Do they not have to or is simply being in possession of the property enough evidence of tenancy?
