- explaining that the reasonableness of a modification under Title III of the ADA is a fact-intensive issue that generally cannot be assessed at the motion to dismiss stage
- “By not taking his mental illness into account, and by not providing him with reasonable and appropriate accommodations during his February 2012 interrogations, Mr. Montgomery was subject to discrimination.”
