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: Lieutenant Colonel Thomas R. Williams 
II, Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and 
Readiness, (703) 697-3387.
