Tankson v Arbor Apartments
Ann Arbor
Sarah Tankson is an African-American woman with a disability. The FHC took a complaint on Tankson’s case when Arbor Apartments staff stated that they did not take SSI, Tankson’s source of income. Tankson also reported being treated rudely in the Arbor Apartment’s offices. FHC testing and a statement from a witness support Tankson’s claim of discrimination based on race and disability.
Court: State
Settlement: $5,000
