I have quite a stack of cases in my pipeline to blog on. When I went digging through them, I came across a decision from April 7 of 2022 (that isn’t a misprint). The case is King v. Stuart Trumbull Memorial Hospital, Inc., a published decision from the Sixth Circuit, here, and it has
College Admission Decisions: The View from Ontario Canada and its Applicability to the U.S.
Usually at this time of year, my last blog entry is devoted to the greatest hits for the year. However, for this year the data points are a bit mixed up because I moved my blog platform to the Lex Blog platform halfway through the year. So, I don’t have data for the whole year.
EEOC and Covid-19 Part III
As everyone knows, I rarely post to blog entries in a week. However, there are exceptions. The EEOC has updated their guidance on the pandemic twice since we last wrote, including yesterday. So, I thought it would be a good time to go over the paragraphs of the EEOC guidance that we have yet to

Medical Licensing Boards, Physician Health Programs, and the Lack of ADA Compliance: an Opportunity for Plaintiff Lawyers

Do’s and Don’ts of the Interactive Process
