How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- stating that an employee must be a qualified individual with a disability to bring a disparate impact claim under the ADA
- “Standing alone, a personality conflict between an employee and a supervisor — even one that trigger[]s the employee’s depression — is not enough to establish that the employee is disabled, so long as the employee could still perform the job under a different supervisor.”
- “It is not enough ... to demonstrate that [the plaintiff] suffers from depression.... [S]he must also demonstrate in the record that her depression substantially limits- her ability to perform a major life activity.”
- several hospitalizations for major depression did not render plaintiff disabled under the ADA
