: Cerebral Palsy Law BlogLandlord Not Fair Under Fair Housing Act
In Connecticut the Justice Department has awarded $115,000 to a tenant because the landlord refused to allow the tenant to have an assistance dog in the home.
It was claimed in the lawsuit that the tenant's daughter needed the dog to help with her cerebral palsy, depression and seizure disorder. The lawsuit also claimed that Mahmoud M. Hussein, the landlord, refused to make any exception to his no-pets policy and refused to renew her lease and began eviction proceedings when she exercised her rights under the Fair Housing Act.
The landlord, Mahmoud M. Hussein, must pay compensation and attorney fees, attend fair housing training, implement a reasonable accommodation policy and comply with monitoring requirements.
