Federal housing officials are charging a pair of New York landlords with violating fair housing law for making no exceptions for emotional support animals in their "no pets" policy.
On Monday, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announced it had filed a complaint against Ronit and Voyl "Tom" Mecham—owners of a two-unit rental property in Jamestown, New York—for denying a tenant's requests to keep a cat on the premises.
