#  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 dwellings with monthly rents of $2400 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 50 U.S.C. App. 531(a)(1)(A)(ii) as of January 1, 2007, will be $2720.95.

**EFFECTIVE DATE:**

January 1, 2007.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

Colonel C. Garcia, Office of the Under  Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, (703) 697-3387.

Dated: January 5, 2007.

Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
