It has been a while since I blogged on the ADA with respect to amusement parks. On July 7, 2023, the 11th Circuit in a published decision came down with a case discussing the ADA with respect to amusement parks. Among the topics discussed are the screen out provisions and direct threat. The case
Just What are Essential Eligibility Requirements Anyway and Associational Discrimination is a Thing Under Title II

Baseball season has started. Cleveland has a new name. Good luck to everyone with respect to their teams. My Braves are loaded as are the Chicago White Sox. The Chicago Cubs are in rebuilding mode I think. Good luck to everyone!

Internet Accessibility Standing Undoubtedly Headed to Supreme Court
Consider the same set of facts.

Today’s blog entry comes from the title III blog put out by Seyfarth Shaw, which you can find in my blogroll. As always, Minh Vu does an excellent job with the case. However, as readers of this blog know, I will blog on cases discussed by others if I think I have a different perspective

Braille Gift Cards and Title III
It is hard to write on anything that doesn’t have something to do with Covid-19. However, ADA jurisprudence continues and a lot of it happens outside of Covid-19. That said, expect a tremendous amount of issues stemming from Covid-19. We will certainly be following those issues closely. Today, we will be talking about a
Okay Boomer at the Supreme Court and What Does That Have to do with the ADA
I am not sure about blog entry times for the next couple of weeks. Next week, I will be attending and speaking at the Accessibility Professionals Association conference in Round Rock, Texas.
