An apartment manager seeks to evict a tenant for filing a discrimination complaint. What California Fair Housing law has the manager violated

Rumford Fair Housing Act

Explanation:

The federal Fair Housing Act, the Fair Housing Amendment Acts (42 U. S. Code 3601-3619, 3631), and many state and local laws prohibit a landlord from selecting tenants based on certain protected criteria. A landlord may not refuse to rent to a tenant for the following reasons:

Race or color

National origin

Religion

Disability or handicap, including physical and mental impairment

Sex, including sexual harassment

Familial status (includes protection for people with children under age 18 or pregnant women)

In addition, state and local housing discrimination laws may offer coverage beyond federal law, such as protection for sexual orientation, age, and marital status.

The Fair Housing Acts apply to any person that deals with tenants and prospective tenants, including real estate agents, property owners, landlords, and managers. Even if the property owner did not personally discriminate against tenants or prospective tenants, the landlord may still be liable for the civil rights violations of employees.
