$225.00
Description
Abstract: Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a person is disabled if he or she suffers from a physical or mental impairment (the first prong) that substantially limits (the second prong) one or more major life activities (the third prong). This article discusses an employee who sued her former employer for failure to accommodate her medical condition and for wrongful termination. At issue was the language used to establish the last two prongs, in light of recently revised Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) regulations. Citation: Allen v. SouthCrest Hospital, No. 11-5016, Dec. 21, 2011 (10th Cir.)
