Supreme Court extends 1866 open housing law to housing
The Supreme Court rules the 1866 civil rights statute bans racial discrimination in all sales and rentals of property, creating a broader fair housing protection than the 1968 act. It allows a Negro buyer and a white spouse to sue to stop private owners from denying sale or rental to Negro individuals. The ruling concerns the Paddock Woods subdivision case in St. Louis, brought by Joseph Lee Jones and Barbara Jo. The decision overrides prior lower court findings that private owners could discriminate. Justice Harlan and Justice White dissented.
