811 charsSection 213.040.1(1) states that "[i]t shall be an unlawful housing practice ... [t]o refuse to sell or rent after the making of a bona fide offer, to refuse to negotiate for the sale or rental of, to deny or otherwise make unavailable, a dwelling to any person because of ... disability..." Like federal courts, Missouri courts use the burden-shifting analysis developed in McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792, 93 S.Ct. 1817, 36 L.Ed.2d 668 (1973) to evaluate proof in discrimination cases where disparate treatment is alleged. Van Den Berk, 26 S.W.3d at 412 ; Hollis v. Chestnut Bend Homeowners Ass'n, 760 F.3d 531, 538-39 (6th Cir. 2014) (explaining that the McDonnell Douglas analysis is an intent-divining test applicable to housing discrimination cases involving claims of disparate treatment).
