 LA Clippers Owner to Pay $2.7M for Housing Bias |
|
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling has agreed to pay $2.7 million to settle accusations that he tried to keep blacks, Hispanics and families with children out of his apartment buildings. A Justice Department statement Tuesday says Sterling agreed to settle a 2006 government lawsuit that accused him, his wife and a family trust of housing discrimination in Los Angeles' Koreatown. A federal judge must approve the settlement. Four years ago, Sterling paid an undisclosed settlement and nearly $5 million in attorneys' fees to end a similar but unrelated lawsuit. An e-mail to a spokesman for Sterling was not immediately returned. |
