United States v. Pfeiffer (D. Minn.)

On October 25, 2021, the Court entered a consent decree in United States v. Pfeiffer (D. Minn.).  The complaint, which was filed on September 16, 2020, alleged that, from at least 2014 through at least 2019, defendants violated the Fair Housing Act by engaging in a pattern or practice of sexually harassing female tenants at properties they own and operate in and around Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Consent Decree requires defendants to pay $750,000 in monetary compensation, including $736,000 to 23 aggrieved persons, and a $14,000 civil penalty to the United States.  It also requires the engagement of an independent property manager, and permanently enjoins Reese Pfeiffer from managing rental properties in the future.
