Case Summary

On January 18, 2001, the United States filed a complaint under the Fair Housing Act and the American with Disabilities Act against the Edward Rose Construction, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana.

On January 18, 2001, the United States filed a complaint under the Fair Housing Act and the American with Disabilities Act against the Edward Rose Construction, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana. The plaintiff sought injunctive, declaratory, and monetary relief. On September 3, 2002, the United States initiated a related lawsuit against the same defendants in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.

The defendants were developers, builders, and operators of rental apartment complexes in the Northern District of Indiana and numerous additional locations. These complexes contained multi-family dwellings, built after the effective date of 42 U.S.C. § 3604(f)(3)(C). Plaintiff claimed that defendants' pattern and practice of failing to design these dwellings so that that were readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities violated rights granted by the Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 3601-3619; Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §§12181-12189; and qualified as discrimination against a person or group of persons under Title III of the ADA, 42 U.S.C. §§12181-12189.

On September 3, 2002, the parties agreed to resolve both the Indiana and Michigan cases without an evidentiary hearing or findings of fact.

On September 30, 2005, the plaintiffs presented a consent order to the court, which Judge Allen Sharp signed on October 3rd. Under the Consent Order, the defendants agreed to retrofit 49 apartment complexes in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Wisconsin, Virginia, and Nebraska to enhance their accessibility to individuals with physical disabilities. The agreement affected more than 5,400 ground floor apartments. The consent decree also required the defendants to pay $1,060,000 to a fund for those who may have been harmed by the lack of accessibility features at the complexes. The consent order terminated in 2010, and the case is now closed.

Contemporaneous with the submission of the Consent Order, the parties stipulated to the transfer of the Untied States' claim against the defendants in the Indiana Action to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. The Michigan Consent Order is separate and resolves the claims raised by both the Michigan and Indiana actions against all Defendants.
