United States Fifth Circuit

In an action for violation of the Fair Housing Act claiming the wrongful enforcement of restrictive covenants, a preliminary injunction in favor of plaintiff is vacated where the Anti-Injunction Act was applicable in this case and the government could not avail itself of the exception for the U.S. when it sought an injunction because of 42 U.S.C. section 3612’s explicit limitations on the remedial powers of the federal courts.
