Where has NYCHA been in this whole conversation you've been having with management over these particular controversies?
Miss Walden

Well, they took my voucher away and I did not know it in February, but they would take my rent.
0:14:35
And at one point, when I found out in April, they want to give me my my, money order receipts back, but I told them, no.
0:14:43
I already paid my rent, but I didn't even know they were holding it.
0:14:47
Management cut off my ticket order at one time, and it's nothing it's just a nightmare.
0:14:54
I went down to NYCHA, and they say they're still waiting for management because they can't do anything until management approve with the voucher.
0:15:03
So just because of this court order, I should be getting my voucher back.
