FJI, on behalf of Housing Opportunities Project for Excellence (HOPE), filed a lawsuit against a real estate company and condominium association for violations of the Fair Housing Act. HOPE testers discovered that the association had a policy prohibiting children under a certain age from living in the condo, and the real estate company published an ad repeating that. The case settled for monetary damages, the condo agreed to repeal the policy, and the real estate company agreed to have its agents trained in complying with the FHA.
