How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- stating that employer's refusal to accommodate plaintiff's disability after it terminated her was not a continuing violation because an employer cannot continue to discriminate against an employee when it no longer employs her
- noting that allowing an ADA claimant\to restart the stat- ute of limitations by sending a letter requesting reasonable accommo- dations after she has been unequivocally fired would destroy the statute of limitations\
- noting that “[the plaintiff’s] employment relationship with Reckitt & Colman ended when she was fired” and so “Reckitt & Colman cannot continue to discriminate against [the plaintiff] when it no longer employs her”
- statute of limitations for ADA claim begins to run at time of discriminatory act, not when the act’s consequences become most painful
