United States v Five Properties, LLC and APMT, LLC, dba Tonti Management (E.D. La.)

On June 17, 2025, the United States filed an amended complaint in United States v. Five Properties, LLC and APMT, LLC, doing business as Tonti Management (E.D. La.).  The complaint alleges that the owner and manager of an apartment complex in Kenner, Louisiana discriminated on the basis of disability in violation of the Fair Housing Act (FHA) by refusing to grant a tenant’s requests for a reasonable accommodation to live with her emotional assistance animal and retaliated for the exercise of rights protected by the FHA.  The case was referred to the Division after the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development received a complaint, conducted an investigation, and issued a charge of discrimination.
