A Brooklyn Airbnb host who claimed he was unfairly targeted by the city in retaliation for his advocacy against legislation regulating home-sharing activity will move forward with a civil rights lawsuit after a U.S. District Court judge dismissed some of his claims but declined to throw out the suit in full. The Airbnb user had sued New York City in federal court, claiming that the Mayor’s Office of Special Enforcement retaliated against him for speaking out in favor of the company by hitting him with $32,000 in fines. The lawsuit is funded by Airbnb.
