How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that infrequent “flare-ups” of plaintiff’s rheumatoid arthritis, occurring one or two times a year, did not equate to a “disability” under the ADA
  • finding that “[b]ecause rheumatoid arthritis is a physiological condition that affects the musculoskeletal system, it clearly qualifies as an impairment.”
  • indicating that a doctor’s restrictions did not significantly restrict employment, as Moore had found work as a charter bus driver after being fired as a truck driver training instructor
  • affirming summary judgment and declining to find that plaintiff’s termination as a result of a condition was sufficient to establish his employer perceived him as disabled
  • analyzing arthritic plaintiff's \rate and pace\ of walking to determine disability
  • the plaintiffs ability to find a new job is evidence that he was not significantly limited in his ability to work
