NORRIDGEWOCK (AP) — A state Human Rights Commission investigator has found reasonable grounds to believe that Norridgewock landlords discriminated against a tenant whose daughter visited the home accompanied by a service dog, then retaliated against the tenant after she filed a complaint.

The Kennebec Journal (http://bit.ly/17iqzs5 ) reported that the investigator’s report now goes to the five-member commission on Jan. 26. The commission can adopt the investigator’s findings. In itself, the findings carry no penalty, but they may become grounds for a lawsuit.

Dawn Zammuto says she was threatened with eviction in August when her disabled daughter visited for five days and brought her service dog.

The landlords, Oakley and Donna Brann, said she broke the no-pets clause in the lease.

The Branns’ lawyer has filed an objection to the commission report.

Zammuto has since moved.
