Learn about disability rights lawsuit before the Supreme Court

Abstract

The U.S. Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments in the case of Acheson Hotels, LLC v. Laufer (https://bit.ly/45QuEAS). The case could curb activists’ ability to bring lawsuits against hotels and other places to ensure they are accessible and compliant with the ADA. The plaintiff, a woman with a disability, served as a “tester” and analyzed hundreds of hotels websites to identify whether they included accessibility information mandated by the ADA. She filed more than 600 lawsuits against small hotels and other places of public accommodation.
