          Ms. Fox alleged that Mr. Gaines and Ms. Gaines violated three provisions of the FHA:
(1) § 3604(b), which bars sex discrimination, among other class-based discrimination, in the
terms and conditions of rental housing; (2) § 3604(c), which bars making, printing, or publishing
discriminatory notices or statements based on sex, among other protected classes, with respect to
the sale or rental of housing; and (3) § 3617, which prohibits interference, coercion, or
intimidation with the exercise of fair housing rights granted in § 3604. Ms. Fox’s allegations
under the Florida FHA were essentially identical to those under the FHA. See Bhogaita v.
Altamonte Heights Condo. Ass’n, Inc., 765 F.3d 1277, 1285 (11th Cir. 2014) (“The FHA and the
Florida [FHA] are substantively identical, and therefore the same legal analysis applies to
each.”).
