摘要

A claim that the design and construction of privately owned student housing violated the accessibility requirements of the Fair Housing Act was barred by the two-year statute of limitations, the U.S. District Court for Maryland ruled. (Kuchmas v. Towson University, Civil ActionrnNo. RDB 06-3281, 2007 WL 2694186 (D.Md.), September 10, 2007)rnMillennium Hall, which provides housing for Towson University students, was opened in 2000. Mark Kuchmas, a wheelchair-bound student, signed a lease for a unit on December 1, 2005, but when he toured the unit in January, he found portions were not accessible.
