Receiver Appointed for Dorchester Property after 7 Year Legal Battle

Attorney Stuart Schrier was appointed by Housing Court Associate Justice Marylou Muirhead to act as receiver for 97 Mt. Ida Rd, Dorchester, over the objections of its owner James Dickey.

Dickey made the news for personally filing an $850 million anti-trust lawsuit against the National Football League Players Association, and for a federal suit in which he alleged that Boston was stealing property from black owners (Dickey is white).
The property was heavily damaged in a 2011 fire and has remained unrepaired since.
