The New York Post reports this morning that a settlement has been reached in the federal lawsuit against East River Housing.

Two cooperators, Amy Eisenberg and Steven Gilbert, will be paid a total of $85,000 for legal fees and be allowed to keep their service pets. The third cooperator, Stephanie Aaron, has one year to find a new home for her dog or find a new place to live.

The federal suit was filed in December 2013 on behalf of these three cooperators who claimed that they were denied appropriate accommodation for their disabilities; the coop’s position had been that since cooperators had not sought approval for their service animals prior to obtaining the pets that they were in breach of their leases.
