Notice To Potential Aggrieved Persons United States V. Loecher (D. Colo.)
UNITED STATES v. LOECHER (D. Colo.)
APPENDIX D
NOTICE TO POTENTIAL AGGRIEVED PERSONS
On August 8, 2016, the United States District Comi for District of Colorado entered a
Consent Order resolving a lawsuit brought by the United States against
Roger P. Loecher, EileenF. Loecher, and Miriam Yehudah, concerning alleged housing
discrimination at Westland Apartments ("Westland"), located at 9905 W. 21st Ave.,
Lakewood, CO 80215. The lawsuit alleged that the owners and manager of Westland
violated the Fair Housing Act by treating individuals with children living with them
who visit the complex and inquire about renting apartments, and individuals with
children who live in the complex, less favorably than individuals who do not have children
living with them. The Consent Order requires, among other things, that the Defendants
provide accurate information about all available apartments at Westland without regard
to familial status and make such apartments available to any eligible renter as required
by the Fair Housing Act.
The Consent Decree also establishes a Settlement Fund to make payments to compensate
persons who are victims of this type of alleged discrimination. You may be entitled to a
monetary award from the Settlement Fund if you (1) are an individual with children;
(2) sought to live at Westland Apartments; and (3) were denied the opportunity to live
at Westland Apartments and/or steered to the back building of the property.
If you believe you may be a victim based on the above criteria, or if you have
information about someone else whom you believe may qualify, please contact the
United States Department of Justice, no later than Tuesday, December 6, 2016,
at: 1-800-896-7743 and select menu option 92. You may also send an e-mail to
