Lawsuit Over Housing Denial Tails Disability and Service Dog
Christopher Evans, a U S veteran with an emotional support dog, was denied a rental at Ashbury Townhomes in Lawrence after supplying a therapist letter. The Douglas County suit, filed November 8, seeks more than 75000 dollars plus costs, alleging failure to provide reasonable accommodations under fair housing law. The city disputes the denial and notes conciliation efforts failed, with a court hearing not yet scheduled.
