Couple Appealing Housing Case

Two people with mental disabilities who sued the state and their group homes for the right to live together after getting married are appealing after a federal judge threw out their case.

Paul and Hava Forziano and their parents filed suit in January 2013 in federal court in Central Islip after their group homes -- run by Independent Group Home Living Program and Maryhaven Center of Hope -- both refused to house the couple together after their April 2013 marriage.
