Arno Mayer is facing eviction from his Princeton apartment, his attorney and son said.
Princeton University emeritus history professor Arno J. Mayer sits outside near Witherspoon House where he currently resides in Princeton.A Princeton University emeritus history professor who filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of himself and 40 other tenants in an apartment building for “unlawful living conditions” last fall is now facing eviction, his attorney and son said.
Mayer and his son held a news conference Friday afternoon to discuss the lawsuit’s contents. He is not currently teaching, his son said. “It’s a matter of life and death for my father,” Mayer said, noting his father is disabled and a World War II veteran. “He’s still there now. But the landlord is trying everything he can to have him thrown out on the street where he can’t survive because he needs 24/7 health aides.”
