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

**AGENCY:**

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

**ACTION:**

Notice.

**SUMMARY:**

The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, as codified at 50 U.S.C. App. 531, prohibits a landlord from evicting a servicemember (or the servicemember'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 $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 50 U.S.C. App. 531(a)(1)(A)(ii) as of January 1, 2010, will be $2,958.53.

**DATES:**

Effective January 1, 2010.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

Dated: March 10, 2010.
