Shuman McCuskey Slicer PLLC attorney Michael D. Dunham obtained a favorable ruling from the Virginia Fair Housing Board on behalf of SMS’s clients, a property owner’s association, and a community management firm.

After considering written submissions, and hearing argument from Mr. Dunham, the Fair Housing Board agreed that reasonable cause did not exist to believe that an unlawful discriminatory housing practice occurred. The Fair Housing Board dismissed the complaint against the SMS clients.
