How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that the plaintiff did not have an ADA disability because his medical problems admittedly did not limit his ability to work for the eighteen months leading up to his termination
  • explaining that “to succeed” on an ADA discrimination claim, “[plaintiff] must be disabled under the ADA . . . .”
  • finding that ten months was not contemporaneous with termination
  • “[I]solated comments are not probative of discrimination unless they are contemporaneous with the discharge or causally related to the discharge decision-making process.”
  • no ADA claim where plaintiff argued only that his condition limited his “ability to function and live”
