Without first moving to dismiss, the District answered
the amended complaint and then moved for summary
judgment on the FHA claim. The district court granted the
District’s motion for summary judgment. The court
concluded that Appellants had failed to make out a prima
facie disparate-impact claim because they had failed to
demonstrate robust causation between the Security Deposit
Policy and the statistical disparity that Appellants had
identified. The district court also determined that Appellants
failed to plead a disparate-treatment claim and that, even if
they had, Appellants did not adduce sufficient evidence to
raise a genuine dispute of material fact. Appellants timely
appealed the district court’s order granting summary
judgment. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1291. STANDARD OF REVIEW
