Mogilevsky alleges that the Defendants violated G.L.c. 15IB, §4 because the terms, conditions or privileges of Mogilevsky’s housing and/or the Defendants’ furnishing of facilities and services were affected by a hostile environment because of Mogilevsky’s religion, and/or his national origin.13 (Id. at ¶49.) A plaintiff alleging housing discrimination may commence a civil action in Superior Court within one year after the unlawful discrimination occurred without first filing a complaint with the MCAD.14 See King v. First, 46 Mass.App.Ct. 372, 373 n.2 (1999); G.L.c. 15IB, §9. Mogilevsky maintains that under the current statute, he may include others not included in his MCAD complaint by filing a civil action directly against them within one year of the alleged discrimination.15
