42 U.S.C. § 1437d(i )(6) was enacted as part of the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988 § 5122, 102 Stat. 4301, 42 U.S.C. § 11901(3) (1994 ed.). The United States Supreme Court first considered the statute in 2002, when it rendered its decision in Department of Housing and Urban Development v. Rucker, 535 U.S. 125, 130, 122 S.Ct. 1230, 152 L.Ed.2d 258 (2002). Ruck-er is the pivotal case when applying the federal statute in local housing authority eviction proceedings and, therefore, we discuss the Court’s opinion in detail.
