Synopsis
The fair housing organization and individual tenant sued the landlord co-op corporation and individuals alleging housing discrimination based on source of income in violation of city and state human rights laws. The landlord's pre-answer motion to dismiss was denied, allowing the discrimination claims to proceed based on allegations that the landlord's real estate agent refused to show an apartment to prospective tenants with rental subsidy vouchers.
