How courts have described this case

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

  • “There is no dispute that alcoholism is a disability within the protection of the ADA.”
  • “There is no dispute that alcoholism is a disability within the protection of the ADA.”
  • “[W]hile the ADA ‘protects an individual’s status as an alcoholic,’ merely being an alcoholic does not insulate one from the consequences of one’s actions.”
  • “Only if the [last chance agreement] is invalid can the plaintiff prevail, because it is clear that [the defendant] discharged him for violating the agreement, not for being an alcoholic.”
  • “Mararri continues to argue that his violation of the L.C.A. was a result of his alcoholism and that his termination was therefore unlawful because it resulted from his disability. We disagree.”
