A federal jury recently returned a $37,343 verdict against a Montana landlord for charging a resident with physical and psychiatric disabilities $1,000 to have a service animal, according to the Justice Department.
The lawsuit alleged that the owner and manager of rental properties in Bozeman discriminated against a resident with a traumatic brain injury by charging her a $1,000 deposit as a condition for allowing her to keep her service dog, Riley. The DOJ became involved after the tenant filed a complaint with HUD.
