Residents of New Orleans, who lost their homes as a result of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, sued actor Brad Pitt and his charitable foundation Make It Right because of poor-quality housing.
Earlier, several people accused Pitt of fraud and violation of the terms of the contract due to the fact that the houses donated to him did not meet the standards, write “Arguments and Facts".
However, the foundation denied the allegations and decided to sue the architect John Williams, who designed the houses above 150. Recall that the actor's charity foundation in 2016 completed the construction of housing to help the residents of New Orleans, who lost their homes after a devastating hurricane.
After the donation of houses to people, it turned out that there were problems with waterproofing and roofs.
Plaintiffs believe that Brad Pitt is responsible for the quality of the construction and for the workers who participated in the construction.
In addition, residents of New Orleans claim that the charity project has become a good advertisement for a Hollywood star.
However, as soon as it became aware of the problems with housing, Pitt immediately began to evade responsibility and ask to be dismissed by the court.
The court has not yet made a decision on the statement of claim. According to Make It Right, home repairs and damages may cost the 20 million dollars to the foundation.
