Long Island man who hasn’t paid his mortgage in 20 years dodges eviction again

A Long Island man who hasn’t paid his mortgage in more than 20 years got another free pass from the courts this week after hiring a new lawyer.

Guramrit Hanspal, 52, hasn’t coughed up a dime to live in his East Meadow home since making a single mortgage payment in 1998, but ducked eviction for decades by filing lawsuits and bankruptcies, records show.

"This is the last of approximately 40 attorneys who have appeared on the eve of a hearing," exasperated Diamond Ridge lawyer Jordan Katz told the judge.

When asked why Hanspal hasn’t paid his mortgage, the attorney pinned the blame on Gov. Cuomo’s March 2020 eviction moratorium, claiming the governor had made paying rent "a moral obligation." He hung up after a Post reporter noted his client’s failure to pay predates the pandemic by 20 years.
