Hedge fund manager Alphonse Fletcher Jr. is facing a potential problem in his discrimination lawsuit against the Dakota: his lawyer has asked to withdraw from the case. The law firm alleges "non-payment of very substantial legal fees" from Fletcher, who sued the co-op board last year. Fletcher, a former board president, alleged that the board denied his bid for the apartment as part of a pattern of discrimination against minorities. [WSJ; previously]
