Terrence Preddie v. Bartholomew Consolidated Scho

How courts have described this case

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

• holding that Plaintiffs “twenty-three absences prevented him from performing the essential functions of his teaching position,” and as a result, “he is not a qualified individual”
• holding that the plaintiff’s periodic requests for medical leave, without more, did “not qualify as ‘protected activity’ under the ADA”
• holding that “intermittently requesting days off” to manage a diabetic condition did not constitute a request for an accommodation
• concluding that a failure to accommodate claim does not survive summary judgment where the employee did not affirmatively request an accommodation even though the employer may have had some knowledge of the disability
• holding that plaintiff had a triable FMLA retaliation claim where evidence supported a reasonable inference that he was fired for absenteeism and his employer had notice that those absences were attributable to his son's sickle cell anemia
• explaining that “protected activity” means seeking an accommodation for or raising a claim of discrimination because of one’s disability
