How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- Finding no basis in the record to conclude that the 6 year delay in effectuating the accommodation was because of plaintiff's disability rather than red tape
- finding no liability under the ADA for delay in installation of elevator due to “the inevitable complications arising from a major, publicly funded construction project on a historic building”
- showing of delay in a municipality's accommodation of a plaintiff's disability, without more, was insufficient to establish the disability-based animus reguired for actionable discrimination 19 under Title II
- affirming an award of summary judgment to the defendant in an ADA suit when \[t]he record simply lacks any reasonable basis for an inference\ that the alleged discriminatory action was taken because of the plaintiff's disability
