HCIDLA & Hi Point 1522 LLC Racism at 1522 Hi Point Apartments 90035. Dear City Clerk City of Los Angeles: The city is requested to release any copies of documents that evidence the city government definition of “intercom”, “call-box”, and “parking”. Reference: “The court ruled that the plaintiff/tenant “prevailed” in this case where the defendants/landlord and Power Property Management Group said they suffered $70,000 in damages after a Black American tenant complained of housing discrimination. At least two requests for monetary damages by the landlord were denied. Although there were past and pending discrimination allegations, the most current lawsuit did not included claims of discrimination brought by the plaintiff. The landlord/defendants were represented by law firm Felman Daggenhurst & El Dabe – Sherman Oaks, CA. The cases: Johnson v. Power 19STSC14394 Los Angeles Superior Court and (2016) Central District Court 2:16-cv-03236-JLS. The landlord claimed he had lost rental income and banks refused to give loans he claimed because of the actions of Black tenant. The tenant claimed all his actions constituted “protected activity”. Much of the landlord’s cross complaint was beyond the statute of limitations. The landlord and management company testified that they do not feel Blacks are entitled to fair housing. The videos herein include an inspection in 2018 by the city and management and an incident in 2021 where code enforcement refused to inspect the property. The last substantial court ruling occurred July 2021. However, no court or government agency has been able to order the housing services requested. The current owner of the property is Hi Point 1522 LLC. This video is based on public documents. Los Angeles.
