Supreme Court of the United States

Bank of America Corp., Petitioners v. City of Miami, Florida. Wells Fargo & Co., Petitioners v. City…

May 1, 2017137 S. Ct. 1296

Summary

The Supreme Court held that the City of Miami is an "aggrieved person" whose financial injuries fall within the Fair Housing Act’s zone of interests, and that proximate‑cause analysis under the Act requires a direct causal relation, not merely foreseeability. Accordingly, the Court vacated the Eleventh Circuit’s judgments and remanded for further proceedings.
