Hollywood film star accused of having rent-controlled apartment in New York under false pretences
As an act of rule-breaking, it is not in the league of Bonnie Parker, the legendary bank robber who tore around the American hinterland ambushing and killing in a cloud of gun smoke. But it has put Faye Dunaway, the actor who played Parker in the 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde, back in the headlines.
Dunaway has been hauled in front of a housing court in Manhattan accused of enjoying a rent-controlled flat under false pretences, the New York Times revealed. In court papers studied by the newspaper, she is accused of paying rent set at $1,048.72 (£639.16) a month though she does not live in the premises.
The unidentified landlord at her one-bedroom flat on the Upper East Side of Manhattan claims Dunaway lives in Los Angeles, pointing to her West Hollywood voter registration and car documentation as evidence.

Oscar winning actress Faye Dunaway reportedly is an inch away from being evicted out of her New York apartment. There's a lawsuit filed by the landlord on Tuesday, August 2 which says that Dunaway has been keeping a rent-stabilized one-bedroom walk-up at the low price of $1,048 a month.
For comparison, the same apartment also located in the Upper East Side is rented out for twice the price. Dunaway did not register the one-bedroom pad as her primary residence, which is required under rent stabilization rules. The landlord provided proof that the actress' voter and car registrations are in California.
A hearing for the case is scheduled to take place in Civil Court on August 11. Should the landlord win the case, Dunaway may have to pay twice the amount she's currently paying. Her son Liam Dunaway O'Neill is also named in the lawsuit.
