Case Summary

This case regards disparate treatment in the handling of housing inspections in Annapolis public housing. On May 7, 2021, two plaintiffs on behalf of a proposed class (every tenant in Annapolis public housing who is similarly situated), filed this lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, with Judge Catherine C.

This case regards disparate treatment in the handling of housing inspections in Annapolis public housing. On May 7, 2021, two plaintiffs on behalf of a proposed class (every tenant in Annapolis public housing who is similarly situated), filed this lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, with Judge Catherine C. Blake presiding. The plaintiffs sued the Housing Authority of the City of Annapolis for violations of the Housing Rights Act, Civil Rights Act, and the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment. Represented by private counsel, the plaintiffs sought declaratory relief, compensatory damages, appropriate equitable relief, and attorneys fees. The plaintiffs claimed the Housing Authority of the City of Annapolis failed to conduct routine inspections which would have uncovered the dangerous flaws in the public housing occupied by the plaintiffs. This case follows on the heels of a 2019 case (White v. City of Annapolis) in which similarly situated plaintiffs sued the city for essentially the same violations Plaintiffs proposed a class but have yet to receive the court’s determination on class certification.

On May 24, 2022, the City of Annapolis filed a third-party complaint against the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development alleging that all of the plaintiff's alleged complaints–if true–are the product of HUD’s failures and not their own. The City claims HUD’s failure to conduct proper inspections and evaluations which were required by contract and law created all of the plaintiff’s unsafe living conditions. This case is ongoing.
