United Stats v. Chevy Chase Federal Savings Bank, et al. (6542 words) |
| The United States further alleges that the challenged practices and policies are intended to deny, and have the effect of denying, an equal credit opportunity to residents of African American neighborhoods, on account of the racial identity of the neighborhood, to obtain mortgage financing and other types of credit transactions. |
| Since this lawsuit is being resolved without a public trial, the United States believes the public interest is furthered by explaining, in Part II of this Decree, the factual allegations of the Fair Housing Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. |
| The United States may petition the Court to extend the court's jurisdiction if it has a reasonable basis for concluding that the remedial goals for the decree have not been achieved and that the Bank and Mortgage Company have not taken all reasonable steps to achieve the remedial goals. |
