A federal court in
Washington, DC, prevented
Louisiana from continuing to
utilize a discriminatory for
mula as part of the federally-
funded "Road Home"
Program, which was
designed by the Louisiana
Recovery Authority and
approved by the U.S.
Department of Housing and
Urban Development
("HUD") to aid homeowners
in their efforts to rebuild in
the wake of devastating dam
age resulting from
Hurricanes Rita and Katrina.
With $ 11 billion in fed
eral funds, the Road Home
Program awards grants to
Louisiana homeowners
whose homes were damaged
by the storms in 2005 using
one of two formulas: either
the pre-storm value of the
home in question, or the cost
of repairs, whichever is
lower.
In the ruling, the Court
determined that using the pre
storm value of the home to
calculate grant awards likely
creates a discriminatory
impact on African-American
homeowners, as black home-
owners' grants are far more

Funding provided in pail by:
likely to be based on the
lower, pre-storm value of
their homes rather than the
cost of repairing the damage
to their homes - even when
the damage sustained and the
cost of repair is the same.
This disparity means that
African-American home-
owners are likely to have
bigger gaps in the resources
necessary to rebuild their
homes. In its order, the Court
granted the plaintiffs' request
to prevent Louisiana officials
from using pre-storm value
to calculate any future Road
Home grant awards.
Last month the plain
tiffs filed a separate motion
for preliminary injunction
asking for a freeze in spend
ing surplus Road Home
funds until the conclusion of
the pending lawsuit, so that
the surplus funds could be
used to make up the differ
ence to those families who
suffered discrimination.
The Court denied that
motion but found a "strong
inference" of discrimination.
The plaintiffs in the
case are the Greater New
Orleans Fair Housing Action
Center, the National Fair
Housing Alliance, and indi
vidual homeowners repre
senting others who suffered
discrimination.
Lawyers from the law
firms of Cohen, Milstein
Sellers & Toll and
WilmerHale are co-counsel.
