AMENDED MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER
Defendants.
This matter is before the Court on the Motion for Summary Judgment (Filing No.
84) (“Motion”), filed by Defendants City of Sidney, Joanie Matthes (“Matthes”), Jordan
Ball (“Ball”), and Gary Pearson (“Pearson”) (collectively “Defendants”). For the reasons
stated below, the Motion will be granted, and the above-captioned action will be
dismissed with prejudice.1
BACKGROUND
The following facts are those stated in the parties’ briefs, supported by pinpoint
citations to evidence in the record, according to NECivR 56.12 and Federal Rule of Civil
1
This Order amends the Court’s prior order (Filing No. 96) only to correct the prior order’s
misspelling of the name of the City of the Sidney.
2
See NECivR 56.1(b)(1) (effective December 1, 2015):
The party opposing a summary judgment motion should include in its brief a concise
response to the moving party’s statement of material facts. The response should
address each numbered paragraph in the movant’s statement and, in the case of any
disagreement, contain pinpoint references to affidavits, pleadings, discovery responses,
deposition testimony (by page and line), or other materials upon which the opposing party
Procedure 56.
It is noted that Plaintiff Jennifer Lynn Cartwright (“Cartwright”),
proceeding pro se, failed to comply with these rules.
She did not “address each
numbered paragraph” of Defendants’ statement of facts, as NECivR 56.1 requires, but
instead “object[ed] to [Defendants’] statement of facts numbered 1-30.” (Filing No. 92 at
ECF 3.) Cartwright did submit her own statement of facts. (Id. at ECF 3–10.)
Based on Cartwright’s statement of facts, and the evidence she presented, it is
apparent that very few material facts—if any—are in dispute. Below are those facts that
are undisputed, based on the Parties’ statements of facts and the evidence, or lack
thereof, revealed in the record.
On June 2, 2011, Matthes, in her capacity as code enforcement officer for the
City of Sidney, went to a residence at 2300 Trail Road in Sidney, Nebraska, where
Cartwright was living with her boyfriend, Troy Frerichs (“Frerichs”). The purpose of
Matthes’s visit was to leave a warning regarding a weed violation on a different property
owned by Frerichs. (Filing No. 86 ¶ 13.) No one answered when Matthes knocked on
the door, but she heard several dogs barking. (Id.) Matthes contacted the Sidney
Police Department to determine if any dogs were licensed at the address in accordance
with City of Sidney Ordinance 618.06.3 (Id.) Upon learning that no dogs were licensed,
Matthes left written notice on the door asking the residents to license all dogs at the
property within seven days. (Id.; Filing No. 92 at ECF 4 ¶ 2.)
On June 15, 2011, Matthes checked the Sidney Police Department database and
found that no dogs had been licensed to Cartwright, Frerichs, or the residence at 2300
relies. Properly referenced material facts in the movant’s statement are considered
admitted unless controverted in the opposing party’s response.
3
The ordinance requires “[e]very person owning, keeping, or harboring a dog” to register it with
the police and pay the licensing fee annually. Sidney, Neb., Ordinances 618.06 & 618.07.
2
Trail Road. (Filing No. 86 ¶ 14.) The same day, Matthes sent a letter restating the
request that any dogs kept at the property be licensed and stating that any unlicensed
dogs were in violation of City of Sidney Ordinance 618.06. (Id.; Filing No. 92 at ECF 5 ¶
3.)
On June 21, 2011, Cartwright called Matthes inquiring if she could administer the
dogs’ required rabies vaccinations herself.4 Upon learning that the vaccinations could
be performed only by licensed veterinarians,5 Cartwright requested an extension and
was given until July 5, 2011, to obtain the licenses. (Filing No. 86 ¶ 15.) On July 11,
2011, Cartwright again contacted Matthes, stating that there had been an illness in her
family and that she would vaccinate the dogs on July 14, 2011. Matthes instructed her
to license the dogs by July 15, 2011. (Id. ¶ 16.)
On July 15, 2011, Cartwright contacted Matthes and explained that she had four
dogs at the residence. The dogs were named Midget, Boogie, Paris, and Putsy, and all
four were toy poodles, none exceeding eight pounds. This conversation was the first
time Matthes became aware that the number of dogs at the home exceeded the threedog residential limit imposed by City of Sidney Ordinance 618.25.6 (Id. ¶ 17.) Matthes
informed Cartwright of this limit and that she could only license up to three dogs.
Matthes also told Cartwright that she could apply for a kennel permit, which, if
approved, would allow her keep all four dogs at the residence. (Id.)
4
City of Sidney Ordinances 618.06 states that “[n]o license receipt . . . shall be issued until such
dog has been vaccinated against rabies, as provided in Section 618.24. Sidney, Neb., Ordinance 618.06.
5
City of Sidney Ordinance 618.24 states that “‘vaccination against rabies’ means the inoculation
of a dog with a rabies vaccine licensed by the United States Department of Agriculture. Such vaccination
must be performed by a veterinarian duly licensed to practice veterinary medicine. Sidney, Neb.,
Ordinance 618.24.
6
The ordinance states that “[n]o person shall establish, maintain, manage, or keep more than
three dogs and three cats on any lot or tract of land within the City [of Sidney] . . . .” Sidney, Neb.,
Ordinance 618.25.
3
On July 19, 2011, Cartwright called Matthes and informed her that one of the
dogs was a service animal. Matthes told Cartwright that all the dogs needed to be
licensed, that Cartwright would not be charged a fee for licensing the service animal,
and that she could only keep a total of three dogs at the residence. (Id. ¶ 18.)
On July 22, 2011, the City of Sidney filed a complaint in Cheyenne County Court
against Cartwright for failure to license the dogs and for having more than three dogs at
her residence. (Id. ¶ 21; Filing No. 92 at ECF 5 ¶ 3.) On July 25, 2011, Cartwright
licensed Midget, Boogie, and Paris. Cartwright identified Midget and Boogie as service
dogs and was not charged a licensing fee for them. (Filing No. 86 ¶ 22.) Midget and
Boogie were licensed as belonging to Cartwright, while Cartwright identified Frerichs as
the owner of Paris. (Id.) Cartwright did not license Putsy at that time, although Putsy
was previously licensed to Cartwright in 2009. (Id.)
The Cheyenne County Court found Cartwright guilty of violating City of Sidney
ordinances in a trial held on September 26, 2011; fined her $100 for each violation; and
charged her $49 in court costs, for a total of $249. (Id. ¶ 24; Filing No. 92 at ECF 6
¶ 13.)
On September 26, 2011, Cartwright filed a complaint with the Department of
Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), which referred the case to the Nebraska
Equal Opportunity Commission (“NEOC”). (Filing No. 86 ¶ 25.) The NEOC issued a
determination letter on August 17, 2012, and, on September 21, 2012, referred the file
to the Nebraska Attorney General’s Office, which declined to pursue the case. (Id.
¶¶ 26–27.)
4
In April of 2013, Cartwright and Frerichs ended their relationship, and Cartwright
moved out of the residence at 2300 Trail Road, leaving all four dogs with Frerichs.
Within two months of Cartwright moving out, Frerichs got rid of the dogs. (Id. ¶¶ 28–
29.) Eventually, Cartwright reacquired Midget and Boogie, both of whom she currently
owns. (Id. ¶ 30.)
Cartwright initiated this action on August 19, 2014, (see Filing No. 1), and filed
her Amended Complaint (Filing No. 11) (“Amended Complaint”) on December 8, 2014.
In its order denying Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (Filing No. 28), the Court liberally
construed Cartwright’s pro se Amended Complaint—a document that did not enumerate
any specific claims but, instead, referenced and included her entire NEOC complaint.
The Court held that Cartwright sufficiently pled claims for relief under the Fair Housing
Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 3601–3631 (“FHA”), and the Nebraska Fair Housing Act, Neb. Rev.
Stat. §§ 20-301 to 20-344 (Reissue 2012) (“NFHA”).
STANDARD OF REVIEW
“Summary judgment is appropriate when, construing the evidence most favorably
to the nonmoving party, there is no genuine issue of material fact and the moving party
is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Crozier v. Wint, 736 F.3d 1134, 1136 (8th
Cir. 2013) (citing Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c)). “[S]ummary judgment is not disfavored and is
designed for every action.” Briscoe v. Cnty. of St. Louis, 690 F.3d 1004, 1011 n.2 (8th
Cir. 2012) (internal quotation marks omitted) (quoting Torgerson v. City of Rochester,
643 F.3d 1031, 1042 (8th Cir. 2011) (en banc) cert. denied, 132 S. Ct. 513 (2011)). In
reviewing a motion for summary judgment, the Court will view “all facts and mak[e] all
reasonable inferences favorable to the nonmovant.” Gen. Mills Operations, LLC v. Five
5
Star Custom Foods, Ltd., 703 F.3d 1104, 1107 (8th Cir. 2013). “[W]here the nonmoving
party will bear the burden of proof at trial on a dispositive issue . . . Rule 56(e) permits a
proper summary judgment motion to be opposed by any of the kinds of evidentiary
materials listed in Rule 56(c), except the mere pleadings themselves.” Celotex Corp. v.
Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 324 (1986). The moving party need not negate the nonmoving
party’s claims by showing “the absence of a genuine issue of material fact.” Id. at 325.
Instead, “the burden on the moving party may be discharged by ‘showing’ . . . that there
is an absence of evidence to support the nonmoving party’s case.” Id. (quoting Fed. R.
Civ. P. 56(c)).
In response to the movant’s showing, the nonmoving party’s burden is to produce
specific facts demonstrating “‘a genuine issue of material fact’ such that [its] claim
should proceed to trial.” Nitro Distrib., Inc. v. Alticor, Inc., 565 F.3d 417, 422 (8th Cir.
2009) (quoting Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp., 475 U.S. 574, 586
(1986)). The nonmoving party “must do more than simply show that there is some
metaphysical doubt as to the material facts, and must come forward with specific facts
showing that there is a genuine issue for trial.” Briscoe, 690 F.3d at 1011 (internal
quotation marks omitted) (quoting Torgerson, 643 F.3d at 1042). “[T]he mere existence
of some alleged factual dispute between the parties” will not defeat an otherwise
properly supported motion for summary judgment. Quinn v. St. Louis Cty., 653 F.3d
745, 751 (8th Cir. 2011) (internal quotation marks omitted) (quoting Anderson v. Liberty
Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 247–48 (1986)).
In other words, in deciding “a motion for summary judgment, facts must be
viewed in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party only if there is a genuine
6
dispute as to those facts.” Guimaraes v. SuperValu, Inc., 674 F.3d 962, 972 (8th Cir.
2012) (internal quotation marks omitted) (quoting Torgerson, 643 F.3d at 1042).
Otherwise, where the Court finds that “the record taken as a whole could not lead a
rational trier of fact to find for the non-moving party,” there is no “genuine issue for trial”
and summary judgment is appropriate. Torgerson, 643 F.3d at 1042 (internal quotation
marks omitted) (quoting Ricci v. DeStefano, 557 U.S. 557, 586 (2009)).
DISCUSSION
Mindful of Cartwright’s pro se status, the Court liberally construed her Amended
Complaint in accordance with Eighth Circuit law and determined she had pled claims
under the FHA and NFHA. (See Filing No. 28 at 9 & 11–16 (citing Miles v. Ertl Co., 722
F.2d 434 (8th Cir. 1983)).) Nonetheless, Cartwright had the burden to present evidence
demonstrating a dispute of material fact to resist Defendants’ motion for summary
judgment. See St. Paul Reinsurance Co. v. Hristov, 155 F. App'x 249, 250 (8th Cir.
2005) (holding that defendant’s former pro se status did not require district court to
withdraw deemed admissions resulting from a failure to respond to motion for summary
judgment); Bennett v. Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc., 295 F.3d 805, 808 (8th Cir. 2002)
(quoting Carman v. Treat, 7 F.3d 1379, 1381 (8th Cir. 1993)) (“[Nonmovant’s] ‘pro se
status did not entitle him to disregard the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure,’ even
without affirmative notice of the application of the rules to his case.”); id. at 808–09
(“The court was not bound, by rule or otherwise, to search the record for genuine issues
of fact, when [pro se nonmovant] failed to bring such issues to the attention of the
court.”).
7
Cartwright alleged that Defendants discriminated against her on the basis of her
sex and disability, in violation of the FHA and NFHA. She also alleged that Defendants
harassed and intimidated her in retaliation for filing a fair housing complaint.7
“Disparate-treatment claims under the FHA are tested under the same framework
as Title VII disparate-treatment claims.” Gallagher v. Magner, 619 F.3d 823, 831 (8th
Cir. 2010) (citing Ring v. First Interstate Mortgage, Inc., 984 F.2d 924, 926 (8th Cir.
1993)). “Proof of discriminatory purpose is crucial for a disparate treatment claim.” Id.
(citing Int'l Bhd. of Teamsters v. United States, 431 U.S. 324, 335 n.15 (1977)); see
Dirden v. Dep't of Hous. & Urban Dev., 86 F.3d 112, 114 (8th Cir. 1996) (“A plaintiff
must prove discriminatory intent to prevail on a claim under the FHA.”)
“Summary judgment [of a disparate treatment claim] is warranted if the plaintiff
cannot produce either (a) direct evidence of discriminatory intent or (b) indirect evidence
creating an inference of discriminatory intent under the McDonnell Douglas burdenshifting framework” Gallagher, 619 F.3d at 831 (internal footnote omitted). “Absent
direct evidence of discrimination, courts apply the burden-shifting analysis articulated in
McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792 (1973).” Tesemma v. Evans, No.
CIV. 09-2744 DSD/JJK, 2011 WL 3418227, at *2 (D. Minn. Aug. 4, 2011) (citing Dirden,
86 F.3d at 114; United States v. Badgett, 976 F.2d 1176, 1178 (8th Cir. 1992)).
“Pursuant to that framework, the plaintiff must first make a prima facie showing of
discrimination.”
Id. (citing McDonnell Douglas, 411 U.S. at 802).
7
If a plaintiff
Although Cartwright’s allegations do not involve the sale or rental of her home, post-acquisition
claims are actionable under sections 3604 and 3617 of the FHA. United States v. Koch, 352 F. Supp. 2d
970, 975–76 (D. Neb. 2004) (“[T]he Eighth Circuit has held that a plaintiff can base a section 3604 or
3617 claim on discriminatory acts that occurred after housing had been acquired.”) (citing Neudecker, 351
F.3d 361).
8
establishes a prima facie case, the burden shifts to the defendant to articulate a
legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for the defendant's conduct. Badgett, 976 F.2d at
1178. The burden then shifts back to the plaintiff, who must rebut the defendant's
proffered reason by showing that it is pretext for unlawful discrimination. McDonnell
Douglas, 411 U.S. at 802. The same framework applies to Cartwright’s claims under
the NFHA. See Osborn v. Kellogg, 547 N.W.2d 504, 511 (Neb. App. 1996).
I. Sex Discrimination
Cartwright alleged that Defendants discriminated against her because she is
female. (See Filing No. 11 at ECF 7.)
Section 3604(b) of the FHA prohibits
“discriminat[ing] against any person in the terms, conditions, or privileges of sale or
rental of a dwelling, or in the provision of services or facilities in connection therewith,
because of race, color, religion, sex, familial status, or national origin.” 42 U.S.C.
§ 3604(b). The NFHA prohibits the same. Neb. Rev. Stat. § 20-318(2) (Reissue 2012).
Cartwright has not alleged any direct evidence of sex discrimination, thus the
Court will analyze her claims of sex discrimination under the McDonnell Douglas
framework.
To establish a prima facie case, Cartwright “must show that she is a
member of a protected class and that she was ‘not offered the same terms, conditions
or privileges of rental under circumstances that give rise to a reasonable inference of
unlawful discrimination.’” Tesemma, 2011 WL 3418227, at *3 (internal footnote omitted)
(quoting Groteboer v. Eyota Econ. Dev. Auth., 724 F.Supp.2d 1018, 1023 (D. Minn.
2010)).
Cartwright alleged that both she and Frerichs lived in a house with four dogs.
She was cited for exceeding the City of Sidney’s three-dog limit and for having an
9
unlicensed dog, while Frerichs, a male, was not. Assuming Cartwright alleged a prima
facie case, the Defendants articulated legitimate, nondiscriminatory reasons for their
conduct, and Cartwright provided no evidence suggesting that such reasons are a
pretext for discrimination.
Matthes initially left a warning for the residents of 2300 Trail Road.
It was
Cartwright who contacted Matthes on July 21, 2011, and communicated that she was
responsible for licensing the dogs. (Filing No. 86 ¶ 15.) City of Sidney Ordinance
618.06 applies not just to a dog’s ultimate owner but to any person “owning, keeping, or
harboring” a dog. There is no factual dispute that this applied to Cartwright, and neither
the FHA nor the NFHA required Defendants to seek out all potential qualifiers under
Ordinance 618.06 and prosecute them as well.
Defendants articulated legitimate,
nondiscriminatory reasons for their conduct, and the burden returned to Cartwright to
show pretext. Because Cartwright did not produce—and the record does not contain—
any evidence indicating Defendants’ reasons for prosecuting Cartwright were a pretext
for discrimination, she has not met her burden and there is no genuine issue of material
fact as to Cartwright’s sex discrimination claim.
II. Disability Discrimination
Cartwright alleged that Defendants discriminated against her on the basis of her
disability by refusing to grant her request for a reasonable accommodation, i.e., allowing
her to keep two service dogs8 and two non-service dogs in excess of Sidney’s three-dog
limit. (See Filing No. 11 at ECF 7.) Under the FHA and NHFA it is unlawful “[t]o
discriminate against any person in the terms, conditions, or privileges of sale or rental of
8
The Court assumes—without deciding—that both dogs qualified a service animals under all
relevant statutes and ordinances.
10
a dwelling, or in the provision of services or facilities in connection with such dwelling”
on the basis of that person’s disability. 42 U.S.C. § 3604(f)(2); see also Neb. Rev. Stat.
§ 20-319(1)(b) (Reissue 2012).
Discrimination prohibited by the FHA and NFHA
includes the “refusal to make reasonable accommodations in rules, policies, practices,
or services, when such accommodations may be necessary to afford such person equal
opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling . . . .” 42 U.S.C. § 3604(f)(3)(B); Neb. Rev. Stat.
§ 20-319(2)(b).
To prevail on a reasonable accommodations claim under § 3604(f)(3)(B), a
plaintiff must prove:
(1) that the plaintiff . . . is handicapped[9] within the meaning of [the FHA];
(2) that the defendant knew or should reasonably be expected to know of
the handicap; (3) that accommodation of the handicap may be necessary
to afford the handicapped person an equal opportunity to use and enjoy
the dwelling; (4) that the accommodation is reasonable; and (5) that
defendant refused to make the requested accommodation.
DuBois v. Ass'n of Apartment Owners of 2987 Kalakaua, 453 F.3d 1175, 1179 (9th Cir.
“The court applies a modified burden-shifting analysis to reasonable
2006).
accommodation claims.” Groteboer, 724 F. Supp. 2d at 1024 (citing Peebles v. Potter,
354 F.3d 761, 766 (8th Cir. 2004)).
After a plaintiff shows that a requested
accommodation was reasonable on its face, a defendant must “show special (typically
case-specific) circumstances that demonstrate undue hardship in the particular
circumstances.” Id. (internal quotation marks omitted) (quoting Peebles, 354 F.3d at
768).
9
The FHA defines handicap as “a physical or mental impairment which substantially limits one or
more of such person's major life activities, . . . a record of having such an impairment, or . . . being
regarded as having such an impairment . . . .” 42 U.S.C. § 3602(h).
11
Summary judgment is warranted on Cartwright’s disability discrimination claim,
because the record is devoid of evidence supporting the third element of her claim, i.e.,
that the accommodation may have been necessary to afford her an equal opportunity to
use and enjoy the dwelling.10 See Celotex Corp., 477 U.S. 317, 322–23, (1986) (“Rule
56(c) mandates the entry of summary judgment . . . against a party who fails to make a
showing sufficient to establish the existence of an element essential to that party's
case . . . .”). The record indicates that once Cartwright asserted that two of her dogs
were service animals, she was not charged a licensing fee for those animals. The
designation of the two dogs as service animals did not require Defendants to exempt
Cartwright from the three-dog limit mandated by city ordinance. She was still limited to
three dogs, though two were service animals.
Cartwright cannot establish that the
accommodation she sought was necessary to afford her an equal opportunity to use
and enjoy the dwelling, and her claim fails.11
III. Retaliation
Cartwright alleged that the Defendants “harass[ed] and intimidate[d] her in
retaliation for filing a fair housing complaint . . . .” (Filing No. 11 at ECF 8.) Under both
the FHA and the NFHA, it is unlawful “to coerce, intimidate, threaten, or interfere with
10
Because the third element cannot be met, the Court need not consider the presence of factual
disputes concerning the other elements.
11
Defendants note that, although no such claim is found in her Amended Complaint, Cartwright
stated in an interrogatory response that she was also seeking relief under the Americans with Disabilities
Act, 42 U.S. §§ 12101–12213 (“ADA”). In its Order denying Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss, the Court—
liberally construing the Amended Complaint—identified only the FHA and NFHA claims. To date, Plaintiff
has not sought to amend her Complaint to include an ADA claim. However, any such claim would fail for
the same reason as her Disability Discrimination claims under the FHA and NFHA. One element of a
prima facie Title II ADA claim is that the claimant “was excluded from participation in or denied the
benefits of a public entity's services, programs, or activities, or was otherwise discriminated against by the
entity.” Layton v. Elder, 143 F.3d 469, 472 (8th Cir. 1998). There is no factual dispute that this element is
not met. Cartwright was allowed to license both service animals and was not charged a fee for doing so.
That the service animals still counted against her three-dog limit did not amount to discrimination under
the ADA.
12
any person in the exercise or enjoyment of, or on account of his having exercised or
enjoyed” any rights granted by the FHA or NFHA. 42 U.S.C. § 3617; Neb. Rev. Stat.
§ 20-344 (Reissue 2012).
In her Complaint, Cartwright alleged that after she filed her fair housing
complaint, law enforcement drove by and parked near her residence more frequently
than before.
She also described several unpleasant interactions between city law
enforcement and members of her family after she filed her fair housing complaint.
(Filing No. 11 at 8.) In her statement of material facts presented in opposition to the
pending Motion, Cartwright mentioned no retaliatory incidents, and the record is devoid
of any evidence of them.
In its Order denying the Motion to Dismiss, the Court
repeatedly noted that it was liberally construing Cartwright’s Complaint, mindful that she
was proceeding pro se. Yet Cartwright bore the burden of producing some evidence to
resist Defendants’ Motion.
She produced none, and summary judgment will be
granted.12
CONCLUSION
For the reasons stated herein, the Court finds that there is no factual dispute
warranting a trial. The Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment will be granted, and
the Plaintiff’s action will be dismissed, with prejudice. Accordingly,
12
Because Cartwright did not meet her burden of resisting Defendants’ Motion as to any of her
claims, it need not consider Defendants’ arguments concerning qualified immunity.
13
IT IS ORDERED:
1. Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment (Filing No. 84) is granted;
2. The case is dismissed with prejudice;
3. A separate judgment will be entered.
Dated this 22nd day of July, 2016.
