How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- reviewing “the record for evidence of six factors set forth in the [Disabilities Act] regulations.”
- recognizing the additional factors “may be considered,” but holding summary judgment for employer is appropriate when the evidence failed to show the employee was restricted from performing a class of jobs, or to address the employee’s vocational training and accessible geographical area
- recognizing evidence did not address plaintiff’s “vocational training”
- evidence showing inability to perform certain physical jobs failed to establish inability to work generally
- Evidence that Plaintiff is restricted from doing a number of physical jobs does not answer the inquiry of how impairment restricts overall employment opportunities
- plaintiff presented evidence concerning only nature and severity of impairment, nothing at all concerning the geographic area, class of jobs, or broad range of jobs
