AG Mayes announced that the Arizona Civil Rights Division of the Attorney General’s Office has successfully resolved a disability discrimination lawsuit against Olive Branch Assisted Living, LLC, Terra Medical LLC, Terra Medical of Arizona LLC, and their owner, Russell Appleton. The lawsuit alleged that the defendants violated the Arizona Fair Housing Act through a series of discriminatory and retaliatory actions against a resident of their behavioral health facility.
"No Arizonan should be threatened or humiliated for simply seeking a place to live and receive care. I will fight to guarantee that anyone who discriminates against or threatens an Arizonan faces consequences under the Arizona Fair Housing Act." -AG Mayes
