Roslyn C. Marinoff v. United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
Roslyn C. Marinoff v. United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
Opinion
Roslyn Marinoff, pro se, filed an administrative complaint with the United States De *65 partment of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) in December 1991 pursuant to the Fair Housing Amendments Act (“FHA”), 42 U.S.C. § 3601 et seq., alleging racial discrimination and retaliation at the housing project in which she lives. HUD closed her complaint in March 1992, because Marinoff had “faded to identify a discriminatory act which has occurred within one year of the filing date.”
In December 1993, Marinoff filed the complaint underlying the instant appeal, claiming that HUD had failed to properly investigate her allegations. On September 19, 1994, Magistrate Judge Roberts recommended dismissal of Marinoff s claim because it failed to state a cause of action under the FHA and because HUD’s dismissal was nonreviewable administrative action under the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. § 704. Judge Wood adopted Magistrate Judge Roberts’s Report and Recommendation in its entirety, as do we, and we affirm for the reasons stated in the published Opinion and Order that includes the magistrate’s report. See Marinoff v. HUD, 892 F.Supp. 493 (S.D.N.Y. 1995).
