A New York judge on Tuesday dismissed lawsuits filed by Airbnb and three hosts over New York City's rules for short-term rentals, saying the restrictions are 'entirely rational.'

A New York judge on Tuesday dismissed lawsuits filed by Airbnb and three hosts over New York City's rules for short-term rentals, saying the restrictions are "entirely rational."

New York's 2022 ordinance requires owners to register with the mayor's office, disclose who else lives in the property, and promise to comply with zoning, construction and maintenance ordinances.
