How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that certain doctors’ actions could be attributed to a hospital because they were “officials” with the authority to determine whether a patient qualified for an interpretive aid
- holding that Supreme Court’s rejection of respondeat superior and constructive notice principles for Title IX claims is also the correct standard for § 504
- noting that a plaintiff seeking compensatory damages under the RA must show that his rights were violated “with discriminatory intent”
- noting that “construing the regulations in this manner would effectively substitute ‘demanded’ auxiliary aid for ‘necessary’ auxiliary aid”
- noting that Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, and Second Circuit have held that deliberate indifference standard applies, and choosing to apply that standard
- holding the \proper inquiry\ regarding \necessary\ auxiliary aids and services was whether the aids \gave that patient an equal opportunity to benefit from the hospital's treatment\
